He gives gems of wisdom to ponder and questions that make me think long after I’ve put the book down. I thoroughly enjoy learning about the history of the Jewish people, their land and their faith. I’ve been shown that there is so much I don’t know about my own faith roots and will be forever grateful to Rabbi Sacks for enlightening the path. While I am a Christian, learning/reading from a Jewish perspective has given me new insight into my faith as well as Judaism. This book is interesting and will hold the reader’s attention without a problem. The chapters are 4-6 pages in length and not written for an academician (thank goodness!), so I was able to grasp concepts without a problem.Rabbi Jonathan Sacks has written a wonderful book for Jews as well as non-Jews who want to learn more about the beginning of creation along with relevant, applicable truths for life today. I am not Jewish, but I am interested in learning about the roots of my Christian faith, which are founded and grounded in Judaism. Rabbi Sacks writes in a way that is engaging, understandable and current. He espouses many life truths that apply to everyone, as well as some for Jews alone. I have the entire Covenant & Conversation series and am currently reading the second book in the series, Exodus. I’m learning a lot from the rich truths of this learned man to whom God has gifted such a talent for writing. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Covenant & Conversation: Genesis:... *by S***K on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 11, 2022* Rabbi Jonathon Sacks is always eloquent and easy to read. I value his clear Jewish perspective, history, knowledge of Mishnah and Talmud, of Torah and the Scriptures. He speaks to a Jewish audience and explains for a Christian one, easing communication between the two believers.This book on Genesis is inciteful as always. It's important to know what is assumed in Jewish history/study, what has been passed down for 1000s of years deliberately and delicately intact, not at all ever like a telephone game. Knowing these things brings Scripture to life and connects the stories into one cohesive plan of G-d to restore Creation --- ALL of it! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Short, Sweet and inspiring. *by J***. on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 30, 2011* Each section of the book, covering the weekly reading of the Jewish Bible, consists of 4 short essays, some focusing more on literary analysis, some on major psychological, historical points etc. The strength of this book is its accessibility to those who have great knowledge of the text and those who don't. His essays often bring together the bigger picture in a way that reading the actual text can not always do. I am currently studying in a Orthodox Yeshiva (Jewish Academy) and weekly one of our head Rabbis give a lecture on the weekly reading and it's clear that Rabbi Sacks is brining unique views supported by many commentaries and can bring something new even to those learning these texts for a living, like me.An important note is that the book will give the most benefit to those who have a familiarity with the details of the stories, as well as some familiarity with the text itself, but a quick read online of most translations or even a wikipedia summary would help and enhance the read of the book.Another small criticism I have is that at time Rabbi Sacks deals closely with the text but at times he makes very broad claims based on major scientific and psychological finds and only ties them together, sometimes loosely, at the end of the mini essay, and then later he refers to his claim as though it were the most obvious thing in the world.However, the ultimate point he is trying to make is often refreshing, beautiful, and rarely ever more overreaching than the claims of many classical Jewish commentators.A worthwhile read I recommend to Jew and non-Jew alike. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/8096992-covenant-and-conversation-a-weekly-reading-of-the-jewish-bible](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/8096992-covenant-and-conversation-a-weekly-reading-of-the-jewish-bible) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
