| 520 | |a This book examines the way in which the story of the flood in Genesis 6-9 presents the ethical question of the value of human life. The sources J and P are examined to see how their combination in the canonical text enhances interpretation.

The work concludes by arguing that the value of human life is found in man's relation to God (Gen. 9:6). | ||
