The
word Genesis means origin, beginning or generation so
it is the title given to the first book of the Bible.
The book of Genesis was compiled and written by Moses
while he was in the Wilderness of Sinai. You will find
the history of Israel from creation to the death of
Joseph. Genesis has 50 chapters divided into two
sections. In the introductory chapters (1-11), it
gives the history of the creation of the earth and
mankind to the dispersion of Noah's descendants over
the world. In the main chapters(12-50), you can find
history of the great patriarchs' lives Abraham, Isaac,
and Jacob along with the history of Joseph in Egypt.
The Koran states that Ishmael the son of Hagar
(Sarah's hand-maiden) was Abraham's favored son but
read here in the true Word of God to find out that
Isaac the son of Sarah in her old age was God's chosen
one.
