Book Description
Excerpt from Gleanings in Genesis In Genesis the truth of sovereign election is first exhib ited. God singles out Abraham from an idolatrous people, and makes him the father of the chosen Nation. God passes by Ishmael and calls Isaac. In Genesis the truth of salvation is typically displayed. Our fallen first parents are clothed by God Himself, clothed with skins: to procure those skins death had to come in, blood must be shed, the innocent was slain in the stead of the guilty. Only thus could man 's shame be covered, and only thus could the sinner be fitted to stand before the thrice holy God.
