From Eden to Egypt is a guided tour of the first book of the Bible. Alex Duke takes the reader by the hand and helps them to see that these stories of Genesis aren’t as difficult to understand as they sometimes seem.

The Bible is one story told through dozens of people over thousands of years. As Christians, we know we're supposed to believe this – and so we do. But when we pick up our Bibles, if we're honest, we sometimes lose the thread, especially with some of the strange and obscure happenings in Genesis.

We can't help but wonder, What's this all about?!

Who – or what – are the Nephilim? What about this mysterious Melchizedek who seems to appear out of nowhere? Why are there so many genealogies? Why do Abraham and a Hittite haggle for so long about the price of a rinky-dink cave? Hang on, are we supposed to be comfortable with Abraham sacrificing his son? Or with Lot's, um, unseemly family dynamics? Or with Jacob's multiple wives? Why do the book's heroes so often act like villains?

And, of course, what does all this have to with Jesus and the gospel?

Careful readers of the Bible have many question
