Description
In this book Isaac Asimov retells the story of Genesis with particular emphasis on the derivation and history of the words that are associated with it, and the expressions that have become a part of our everyday language. His account, written with enthusiasm, reverence, and a lively sense of curiosity, makes a stimulating introduction and companion to the Bible itself. A complete index of words and names makes it a useful reference as well. -- from book jacket.
