Paradise to Prison is a commentary, textbook and complete study guide to the book of Genesis. In very readable fashion the author explores the lives of the patriarchs as well as important doctrinal themes. Each chapter is carefully documented and sources from archaeology and ancient Near Eastern history are freely used. The writer's premise is that no other ancient literature surviving the ravages of time can rightly be compared to Genesis with its unsurpassed theological perspectives and vivid profiles of early man.

revelation versus observation
Gen 1:1 p 42
13 The cosmic scope of its themes, the majestic imagery of its poetry, and the warm drama of its narrative only partially account for the enduring worth of the Book of Genesis.
19 From the origin of man the writer shifts attention to the fall of man and the human dilemma. These chapters are strategic because they resolve that dilemma. The problem of evil is rarely discussed in such a manner by other ancient writers. From this point the writer concentrates on the spiritual, moral, and practical consequences of sin. Great catastrophes, such as the flood and the confusion of tongues at Babel, demonstrate God's response to human rebellion.
