The book of Genesis is undoubtedly the most read and commented-on book in the Hebrew Bible. In this course we will study the Hebrew text of Genesis, the context of its composition in ancient Judah, and its modern scholarly interpretation. We will also engage with related materials from Mesopotamia and its reception history. Knowledge of biblical Hebrew is expected.
