In this book we find the beginnings of the material universe, human life, human sin, divine judgment on human sin, covenant promises, and the Israelite tribes to name just a few. Genesis provides a foundation for a great deal of what we can know about life and our Lord. The Bible s first book has not always been called Genesis. Following the tradition of naming a book after its opening word or words, the Hebrew title of the book was In the Beginning. Genesis is the first of five books forming a group of their own at the beginning of the Old Testament.
Genesis provides the background for the Exodus and the wilderness settings of the other four books.
