For readers seeking deeper biblical insights.

"Jonah in the Shadows of Eden" clarifies Jonah's story.

You will understand Jonah's struggle and God's mercy.

Discover a fresh and insightful interpretation of Jonah that connects his story to the Garden of Eden and reveals deeper meanings about humanity's sins.

Yitzhak Berger advances a distinctive and markedly original interpretation of the biblical book of Jonah that resolves many of the ambiguities in the text. Berger contends that the Jonah text pulls from many inner-biblical connections, especially ones relating to the Garden of Eden. These connections provide a foundation for Berger s reading of the story, which attributes multiple layers of meaning to this carefully crafted biblical book. Focusing on Jonah's futile quest and his profoundly troubled response to God's view of the sins of humanity, Berger shows how the book paints Jonah as a pacifist no less than as a moralist."
