Curious about ancient stories, once a part of our culture, that schools fail to teach today? Our Supreme Court gave guidelines so classes could read them, so why don't they? Are schools fearful that teachers will present the stories for religious purposes? Shouldn't students know of Eve and her fatal choice of pride's poison, a poison that took her life, sent one son to the grave, and condemned her firstborn to wander the earth? Shouldn't they know of Lamech, drunk on that same poison, singing self-exalting songs of brutality and leading the world into a violence that could be cleansed only by raging żoods? Also, for their great comfort, shouldn't students know of Jacob's sons, so much like Cain yet united by a brother who laid aside pride's call for revenge--even pride's call for personal justice? This book leads public school students through the first part of the world's hidden-away bestseller, marking out a path through the legal thickets and pits of the Bible into the hearts of the ancients--people who had the same joys, sorrows, failures, and hopes that all of us have, even today. A Student's Notes on Genesis is for curious-minded students and for public school teachers who know that education should include the world's bestseller. ""Having heard for several years that A Student's Notes on Genesis was being written, I greatly anticipated its completion. I can now say after my first reading that it has exceeded my expectations. Eleanor Rupp has accomplished what so many have never dared to try."" --Barbara K. Bellefeuille, Vice President for Academic Services, Bethel College ""This is must-have book for public school administrators, teachers, board members, or parents who believe that the Bible has a legitimate place in the public schools and can be taught without violating the US Constitution. The author should know, since she taught the Bible for more than forty years."" --Timothy C. Evearitt, Professor of Education (retired), Covenant College ""Eleanor Rupp began teaching Bible at Bluefield High School in the 1960s. She was an educator and developed a course that was not only meaningful to students but also complied with US Supreme Court guidelines for teaching Bible in public schools. A Student's Notes on Genesis captures a part of the rich legacy she left at BHS, yet it challenges the reader to take up and continue her work."" --Bob Harrison, Retired West Virginia Educator Eleanor Grace Rupp taught the Bible in the public schools for forty-five years, continually seeking to understand the Supreme Court guidelines for how this ancient, world-famous book may be legally taught in the public schools. She has degrees from Southern Connecticut State University, Columbia International University, and Reformed Theological Seminary, as well as an honorary doctorate of letters from King University.
