I was searching for commentaries on Genesis and came across a syllabus for a semester course taught at Emory University where a professor named David R. Blumenthal taught on Genesis chapters 1 and 2.
The course also was focusing on commentaries from Rashi, Rashbam, Ramban (also known as Nahmanides) and Ibn Ezra.
Some resources associated with the same site:
The Traditional Translation With Renderings According to Rashi and Rashbam
The Traditional Translation With Renderings According to Ibn Ezra and Ramban
I don’t know yet what to think of the “renderings” of the creation story written by Rashi, Rambam, Ibn Ezra and Ramban, but if a person scrolls all the way down on each, there are footnotes that contain interesting information.
I’m simply impressed that a Bible course would focus on one or two chapters (and associated commentaries) for an entire semester.
