New Year's Day, these are some introductory comments on how we're shaping this reading of Genesis. Why 50 chapters, rather than the 12 weekly portions read in synagogues? What this 'toledot', 'generations' or 'begatitudes' stuff? What's the acronym 'JEDP' mean?
Find a bible, so you can read along as you listen, starting tomorrow, Sunday January 02, with Genesis chapters 01-06 - about 34 minutes of reading, then a few minutes of comments if you keep listening.
Starting Monday, we'll stick closer to the '5-10 minutes a day' deal, with a chapter read from Everett Fox' translation, then comments.
