In summary, McKeown's commentary attempts to do many things but cannot be said to do any of them particularly well. Students may not find citations to the secondary literature they seek, pastors and preachers may struggle with having to flip between the exegetical and theological sections of his commentary for insights on a single passage, and theologians will be disappointed that major theologians (e.g. Calvin, Barth, Pannenberg) are hardly cited within its pages. Unless a reader has a particular interest in tracing thematic threads through Genesis, it is likely that other commentaries and studies on Genesis will be more helpful than this volume.

In this commentary James McKeown treats Genesis as a book of beginnings and a foundational sourcebook for biblical theology. He begins with exegesis of the Hebrew text, highlighting the recurrence of key words, phrases, and themes throughout the book. He also draws attention to passages particularly pertinent to earlier readers either facing or returning from exile, offering a historical context outside a solely Christian perspective. The second half of the book unpacks the numerous theological horizons of Genesis -- main unifying themes (descendants, blessing, land); key theological teachings of Genesis (creation, fall, character and image of God, life of faith); and the contribution of Genesis to theology today, including its impact on science, ecology, and feminist theology. McKeown's Genesis provides a solid examination of a scriptural book that reflects the struggles and hopes of its readers -- ancient and modern -- and offers encouragement for their walk with God.
