About this title

Synopsis

In this edited collection, Daniel B. Oden, J. David Stark, and the contributors wrestle with the complexities of unity. Discussing Genesis 1:1–11:9, the essays herein describe the hermeneutics of unity appeals from the Ancient Near East to the twenty-first century and in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The contributors particularly attend to these appeals’ hermeneutical dimensions, asking why and how the appeals connect themselves to Genesis and how they foster a vision of unity in the process. Despite and, indeed, because of their differences, these appeals show what is common among those who seek unity in dialogue with Genesis and the traditions surrounding it.
