Overview
Patterns in Genesis and Beyond by Rabbi David Sykes
In his Book of Psalms (19:8), King David declares: "God's Torah is whole." These words have been the guiding light for this book's approach to the interpretation of the Torah. In this work, verbal and thematic links between Biblical accounts, especially in the Book of Genesis, are noted and expounded upon, and are shown to be present in a consistent and systematic way. These connections also combine to form a network of patterns, an integrated whole. Throughout the millennia, many commentators have pointed out such connections; in this work, their observations are adduced and built upon. The uncovering of patterns in the Torah has no end, as the holy Torah is of infinite depth.
