Summary
Date: 20-50 C.E.
This allegorical commentary, as we have it, begins at Genesis 2 and does not cover the creation of the world. The style corresponds with the method of Rabbinical Midrash, similarly to his later works. While often treated as a separate work and given a special title, 'On the Birth of Abel' is part of a composite commentary on all of Genesis.
