About this book
A Critical and Exegetical Commentary on Genesis examines the wording of the account of creation, including a discussion of a term for cultivated plants used as human food. The discussion of kinds calls the word's etymology uncertain, distinguishes a possible meaning of form from its apparent use for kind, and notes a distributive singular suffix.
The commentary on the heavenly luminaries says that the verses describe only the creation of sun and moon and that the clause concerning stars appears to be an addition. The discussion of Abraham's descendants identifies the promise of kings as peculiar to the Priestly-Code and explains the reference as being to the Hebrew monarchy.
