語  言: 英文

簡  介: Genesis means origin or birth. This title of the first book of the Bible was derived from the Greek translation of the Old Testament. In the Hebrew Bible the name is simply “In the beginning”, after the first words of the book. It is the book of beginnings, the basis of God’s self-revelation. In Genesis we find, indeed, the beginning of everything, the origins of life, of heaven and earth, of man and the world in which we live. Genesis 1 to 11 in particular, contain numerous important principles that have left their mark on world history and will remain meaningful until the end of the age. Several terms and expressions of the first chapters of God’s Word return in the last few chapters of the Revelation, which describes the ultimate goal of God’s dealings with the earth. After the initial description of the earliest history of mankind until the building of the tower of Babel , the book of Genesis focuses on the origins of Israel , God’s chosen people who were to carry the revelation of God in a world which had gone astray and served the idols.
