“What makes this book of great value for the Christian interpreter is the fact that Dr. Johnson not only examines and explains the text from the Christian perspective, he also helps the reader understand how the Jewish rabbis for many centuries have explained these first words of their sacred text. Johnson draws on his rich background in Hebrew, Aramaic, Targums, and Christian theology to explain the text.”
