Excerpt from The Book of Genesis: A Complete Analysis of Genesis With Annotations The first Book of the Bible is called in the Septuagint (the Greek translation of the Old Testament) Gene sis. Genesis means Origin. The Hebrews call it by the first Hebrew word Bereshith. - In the Begin ning. It is the Book of all beginnings. We can trace here the beginnings of creation and everything else, except God, who has no beginning. The Book of Gene sis is the great foundation upon which the entire: revelation of God rests. The marvellous structure of the Bible, composed of the different books, written by different instruments of the Spirit of God at different times, is built upon this great, majestic Book. It is the root out of which the tree of God's revelation has grown. Internal evidences prove the most complete unity, that it is the work of one chosen instrument, Moses, and that it is not of a composite authorship. But more than that, the Book of Genesis establishes the Divine Unity of the Bible. The last Book of the Bible, the Revelation, confirms this. Genesis tells of the origin of all things; Revelation reveals the destiny of all things. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
