In Scribbles in the Margins: Discovering Genesis Againfor the First Time, author Marlin Brown invites readers to step beyond thefamiliar verses of Genesis and into a vivid, intellectually honest, andunexpectedly humorous exploration of the Bible's most iconic origin story. This isn't your usual Genesis Bible study. This is a boldrediscovery of the Old Testament's first book through fresh eyes-and the marginnotes you always wished someone had written.

Blending insights from ancient texts, linguistic nuance, historical context, and yes-even dad jokes-Brown reveals surprisingcontradictions, deep metaphors, and overlooked details in the Garden of Eden, the creation stories, and the so-called ""Fall."" He challenges rigid traditions with clarity and wit, offering an accessible yet thought-provoking guide for those weary of dogma andhungry for truth.

The beginning wasn't the beginning. And Eden was more thanparadise-it was a statement.

See Genesis with new eyes-what's hidden may surprise you.
