Thomas Keiser is Professor of Biblical Languages at Virginia Beach Theological Seminary. The concentration of his studies has been on biblical theology derived from a literary-theological approach to Scripture, with a special focus upon discourse analysis.
It is rare to encounter a volume that allows the text the weight of
interpretative value accorded here. This is a singular achievement,
rooted in serious scholarship and reflection, and comes with the
highest accolades as a wonderful contribution to our understanding
of not only the initial chapters of the Bible, but perhaps, the key
to understanding the Bible as a whole.
--John D. Hannah, Dallas Theological Seminary Thomas Keiser's
application of literary-theological exegesis of the opening
chapters of the Torah demonstrates the effectiveness of a
text-centered approach for discerning the verbal meaning of
Scripture. His careful and contextual reading confirms the literary
coherence of Genesis 1-11 and brings with it many enlightening
exegetical and theological insights.
--Seth D. Postell, Israel College of the Bible In this
well-researched, clearly written, exegetically sound study, Keiser
challenges us to read these chapters as God intended them to be
read. He demonstrates that there is a theological message here that
is foundational to our understanding of all that comes later. I
heartily recommend this important work.
--Robert B. Chisholm Jr., Dallas Theological Seminary
