The Book of Genesis Overview : A Brief Summary

This book, and the ones that follow for each of the other books in the Bible, is written for the purpose of providing a more in-depth understanding and knowledge of the Scriptures based upon the original text (language). This book is also for the purpose of teaching or reminding readers of the following facts about the Bible:• The Bible is a unified text in that its theme is carried out from Genesis to Revelation without contradiction in spite of the fact that it was written over a period of several hundred years by a number of different writers.• Each book, chapter, and verse hinges on the others; meaning none of the Bible can be isolated from the rest of it. The full meaning and ‘story’ is dependent on the whole text in order to be complete.
