Creation and Fall

Summary: An Interesting Exposition on Creation
Review: Bonhoeffer exposites the Genesis account of creation with clarity and thoroughness. One thing is for sure: Bonhoeffer sticks to Scripture in structuring his theology of the creation and fall thereof. A fan of Bonhoeffer, I find the book wordy at times, but a must-read for any study of the Genesis creation account.

Summary: Great words on Genesis 3
Review: 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.

Summary: Entirely New Translation in a Critical English Edition
Review: This entirely new translation is a part of the Dietrich Bonhoeffer Works, the 17 volume critical English Edition being published by Fortress Press. It is based on the text of the German critical edition, the Dietrich Bonhoeffer Werke published by Guetersloher Verlagshaus. Each volume in this new English edition provides the best available English translation, correcting errors and omissions in previous versions. An extensive introduction to the text especially for the English-language reader provides the historical and theological context necessary to understand Bonhoeffer's written legacy. This new edition will become the standard edition of Bonhoeffer's writings for the nonspecialist and the scholar as well, superseding all previous translations.
