De La Torre remembers Jacob's wrestling at Peniel (Gen. 32:24-32), and finds that \"there are consequences when we truly wrestle with the biblical text, struggling to see the face of God.\" This commentary provides theological and ethical insights that enables the book of Genesis to speak powerfully today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe volumes in Belief: A Theological Commentary on the Bible from Westminster John Knox Press offer a fresh and invigorating approach to all the books of the Bible. Building on a wide range of sources from biblical studies, the history of theology, the church's liturgical and musical traditions, contemporary culture, and the Christian tradition, noted scholars focus less on traditional historical and literary angles in favor of a theologically focused commentary that considers the contemporary relevance of the texts. This series is an invaluable resource for those who want to probe beyond the backgrounds and words of biblical texts to their deep theological and ethical meanings for the church today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Miguel A. de la Torre\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0664232523\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780664232528\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Westminster John Knox Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/13\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 400\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.29w x 1.38d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChristian Century\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/02\/2012 pg. 22","brand":"Miguel A. de la Torre","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43992261624063,"sku":"9780664232528","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_84b935ca-3170-400e-bf60-28c388b81b4f.jpg?v=1683314957","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/genesis-miguel-a-de-la-torre-9780664232528","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
