The Garden Of Eden & The Struggle To Be Human by Rabbi Wilfred Shuchat is a 2006 first-edition hardcover that invites serious readers to re-examine the Genesis narrative through a lens of modern spirituality. Published by Israel’s Devora Publishing Company, this 584-page religious studies text draws on decades of scholarship to explore what the Eden story reveals about being human today.

This copy arrives with a neat author inscription on the flyleaf, adding personal provenance for collectors of contemporary Judaica. It is still wrapped in its original dust jacket and remains tightly bound, a testament to the publisher’s sturdy production standards. Expect about thirty-two pages that carry neat pen underlining and slight shelf marks to the inner boards; otherwise the pages are crisp, uncreased, and free of dog-ears.

Ideal for clergy, seminary students, or anyone building a spiritual library, this first printing anchors broader conversations on faith, ethics, and self-understanding. The book’s clean, sturdy block makes it ready for immediate reading or display, while the discreet underlining can serve as a thoughtful guide for future study.
