GENESIS
The Book with Seventy Faces
A Guide for the Family


By Esther Takac


Written in multiple layers, this book encourages the family to read and discuss the weekly Torah portion together. Each page includes a lyrical retelling of the biblical story as well as a layer of commentary for children and parents.
Engaging questions encourage children to own the stories and become commentators themselves. Further interpretations and source material are provided for teens and adults in margin boxes, thereby enriching parents' ability to guide their children through the text.
With its layers of traditional and modern interpretation, this guide to Genesis reflects the world of Jewish commentary and helps readers navigate their way through Jewish texts and history.

"Offers parents and children a rich and imaginative resource for studying the Book of Genesis together. The Jewish tradition of learning and re-learning, uncovering new questions and new layers of meaning, is honored here, as children are exposed to this unfolding of sacred texts. This promises to be a valuable and unique contribution to the Jewish children's bookshelf, and one for which the time is right. "
