The authors of this collection of essays explore different ways that ancient Jews and Christians understood the world's creation and how this understanding shaped their world. The volume places discussions of cosmogony not only within the contexts of biblical hermeneutics and the politics of interpretation, but more broadly within the diverse realms of ancient life. The authors demonstrate how beliefs about Creation played an important role in constructing rituals, pedagogy, ethics, geography, and anthropology. A biblically-based tradition shared by Jews and Christians, the Creation story serves as a fruitful point of departure for this collection of studies about these communities, their interactions, and their overlapping and competing conceptions of the world. Contributors: Mika Ahuvia, Yair Furstenberg, Lance Jenott, Sarit Kattan Gribetz, Gwynn Kessler, Alex Kocar, Naomi Koltun-Fromm, Richard A. Layton, Ophir Münz-Manor, Maren R. Niehoff, Tuomas Rasimus, Geoffrey Smith, James C. VanderKam, Christian Wildberg
