Have you ever wondered what is your life's purpose? Are you, or someone you know, struggling to find answers to troubling existential questions? If you answered 'Yes' to any of these questions, then this is the right book for you. This simple, down-to-earth commentary on the book of Genesis discusses important issues about our humanity that cut across racial, socio-economic, cultural, and political barriers.

The author shows that Genesis is a book of discovery and demonstrates the significance of its message in various aspects of the human life. This devotional study of Genesis points the reader to the providence of God the Creator in human affairs and how to tap into God's wisdom to overcome the many challenges of life.

In this commentary you will discover practical wisdom for living through the fascinating and often heartbreaking stories that fill the pages of Genesis. For instance, there are practical, godly lessons about relationships, marriage, vocation, business, creativity, and most of the issues that resonate with humans of every gender, race, and nationality. In essence, this is a devotional commentary that does not bog the reader with unnecessary theological arguments and conjectures, but addresses day-to-day issues that people are confronted with on daily basis. These practical lessons are derived from each chapter of Genesis.

"These meditations based on Genesis are not a commentary in the strictest sense. They are motivational considerations to guide the reader in every situation in life based on the stories in Genesis. They include finding God's purpose for one's life, confronting suffering, and practical advice on handling other people. The reader will find solid counsel in these areas on every page. They prove that the Bible is not merely a set of theological accounts, but an eminently practical guide to life's vicissitudes. Every believer will find wisdom for living here. I highly recommend it."

"The modern world now stands in dire need of immediate help, clear direction, and guidance on both individual and institutional levels. All across the globe, we are beginning to slowly recognize the inadequacies of our human hubris in the limitations of our technological achievements. In the Motivation Bible Commentary on Genesis, Seth B. Kajang grounds the message of motivation to the modern world on the Bible against the popular tendencies to base this enterprise on faulty individual and institutional philosophies. This powerful message of hope, faith and love...is rooted in God's intriguing relationships with the human race in the pages of Genesis... In this way, Kajang brings the issues of Genesis alive and places them in deeper conversation with the different existential struggles of our modern world...I strongly recommend this book by to all Christians-and non-Christians who want to hear the eternal voice of God afresh against the self-alienation, confusion, and hopelessness of our present world."
