Since Eugene Peterson first wrote this spiritual formation classic nearly forty years ago, hundreds of thousands of Christians have been inspired by Peterson's prophetic and pastoral wisdom and the call to deeper discipleship found in the Songs of Ascents (Psalms 120-134). This special commemorative edition includes a new preface taken from Leif Peterson's eulogy at his father's memorial service.

The creation account that begins the Old Testament exhibits conspicuous structures that have intrigued scholars, theologians and casual readers alike. A typical response is to merely acknowledge the author’s clever use of poetic devices. But is this an adequate explanation and response? Or could the mystifying surface text be an invitation to seek a deeper message hiding in plain-sight? In fact, the start of Genesis contains enough clues to help us de-code its hidden content. And that same content is, among other things, a tiny seed which has determined the blossoming of the whole Bible. Finding the cryptic content in the Hebrew Torah is like bringing a magic-lantern into proper focus. Suddenly, it becomes obvious why widely separated biblical episodes came about. All at once, hitherto obscure passages are brought into the limelight. Mysterious prophesies and apparent contradictions in books like Ezekiel and Revelation, Ezra and Nehemiah finally make perfect sense, but in surprising ways. And all this from one strategically-placed, incredibly compact literary artefact. The prophets are not alone in having found the key to the hidden mysteries. The same phenomenon also illuminates both the rise and final demise of the enigmatic Knights Templar. In due course, the same seed became misrepresented in popular myths and legends, as well as shaping the symbolism of particular secret societies. Perhaps the most surprising attribute of the creation account is that it does, after all, conceal descriptions of the way our physical universe works, even from its remotest beginning. Includes over 80 original illustrations.
