Rereading Genesis 1-11 with a Look into Revelation 18

"Having studied the tail end of the Bible for decades, Strickler now probes the front end to unearth a fresh contribution to a theology of God's covenantal relationship to all creation. Recognizing that the older Yahwist tradition reflects nationalistic interests, the book revolves around the paradigmatic influence of the younger Elohim tradition, which aligns better with the New Testament fulfillment of God's creative-redemptive purposes first mapped out in the early Genesis narratives."
