Product Description Creation and Fall originated in lectures given by Dietrich Bonhoeffer at the University of Berlin in the winter semester of 1932-33 during the demise of the Weimar Republic and the birth of the Third Reich. In the course of these events, Bonhoeffer called his students to focus their attention on the word of God the word of truth in a time of turmoil.
reviews
Great words on Genesis 3
In general, Bonhoeffer's comments on chapters 1-2 are extremely philosophical, abstract, and largely unhelpful. But his work on Genesis 3 is worth the price of the book. Good resource for preachers preparing sermons on Genesis.
