Drawing on prophets ancient and modern—plus early Christian and Jewish sources—Gaskill corrects common misconceptions and shows how the Eden story is really about each of us. A verse-by-verse study of Genesis, Moses, and Abraham reveals rich symbolism connecting the Fall to temple worship, Christ and His Church, and the plan of salvation.
