This volume is not just a revision of Dr. Lamsa?s Old Testament Light commentary on Genesis, 1964. Dr. Errico has edited, expanded, and annotated the previous comments in the new format that Dr. Lamsa desired. In addition, this book contains unpublished material that the two of them had only drafted prior to Dr. Lamsa?s death in 1975. Dr. Errico completed these comments, adding information derived from his continual research in Aramaic word meanings and Near Eastern Semitic Studies.
