Displays of awesome cosmic power, tender love stories, tearful family reunions, and tales of deceit, rape, murder, and worldwide destruction. If this sound like the script for a movie, no it is not, It is how a world created for love and harmony goes astray because of sin. Through it all, God is at work, forming a people to restore what was lost. The book of Genesis is about the creation, Genesis explains the beginning of many important realities: the universe, earth, people, sin, and Gods plan of salvation.
Genesis teaches us that the earth is well made and good. Mankind is special to God and unique. God creates and sustains all life. Genesis explains why men are evil, they choose to do wrong. Even great Bible heroes failed God and disobeyed. But obeying God restores our relationship to him, the only way to enjoy the benefits of Gods promises is to obey him.
Genesis Summary
Genesis can be considered a chronological diary of Gods creation of man, and His relationship and love with them, and for them. In the beginning, out of chaos, darkness and void, God created the heavens, earth, seas, and all therein. He formed man and woman (Adam and Eve), in his own image and put them in the garden to dress it and keep it, but warned them not to eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Beguiled by the serpent they violated Gods command and plunged the whole world into sin. Eventually sin dominated the whole earth with the exception of Noah, who was a just man and found grace in the eyes of the Lord. Thus by obeying God and building an ark, Noah and his family was spared when God sent a flood to destroy mankind. Following the flood, Noah and his family began to multiply and replenish the earth. Abraham, a descendant of Noahs son Shem, found favor with God and God established an everlasting covenant with Abraham and his descendants after him in order to begin His plan to redeem mankind from their sins And through your offspring all nations on the earth will be blessed (KJV, Genesis 22:18). Through the patriarch Abrahams grandson Jacob, were born twelve sons, who became the ancestors of the twelve tribes of Israel. One of Jacobs sons, Joseph, was sold into slavery by his envious brothers, and taken to Egypt. Little did Josephs brothers realize, that this was all a part of Gods plan to preserve them during the seven years of famine that would spread across the land, by giving Joseph favor with the Pharaoh, who made Joseph a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt. After revealing his true identity to his brothers, Joseph sent for his father Jacob, who dwelt in the land of Canaan. Along with Jacob went his eleven sons, their wives, children and flock. Thus the house of Jacob that left Canaan to dwell in Egypt due to the famine were a total of seventy people. Following the death of Jacob, Josephs brothers became fearful that Joseph would requite the evil they inflicted upon him, and sent Joseph a false message from their father Jacob, asking Joseph to forgive and have mercy on them. All Joseph could do was weep, and let them know that he did forgive them and would continue to take care of them and their children, because what they intended for evil, God meant for good in order to save their lineage. Joseph reminded them that indeed, God will surely visit you, and bring you out of this land unto the land which He sware to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob. Joseph made them promise that when God did deliver them from Egypt, that they would carry his bones with them. Joseph then died being one hundred ten years old (Genesis 50:24-26).
Noah
The history of Noah, of course begins with Adam. Noah was the son of Lamech, who was the son of Methusselah, who was the son of Enoch, who was the son of Jared, who was the son of Mahalaleel, who was the son of Cainan, who was the son of Enos, who was the son of Seth, who was the son of Adam, who was the son of God (KJV, Luke 3:36-38).
Noah had three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth, who developed into three tribes and went on to develop their own political, cultural, and ethnic traits through which the whole earth was populated (Genesis 10:1-32). The people of the land found a plain in Shinar and was one language and one speech, until they attempted to build a tower (Babel), whose top was to reach into heaven. God came down, confused their language and scattered them throughout the whole earth (Genesis 11:1-9).
Shem (Shemites), had five sons who were believed to have eventually settled in Middle East Asia. Shem was actually the father of the nations of the ancient Near East including the Israelites and the Jewish religion, and therefore Judaism, Islam, and Christianity sprang from the line of Shem. Their names are: Elam (The Persians) settled northeast of the Persian Gulf. Asshur (The Assyrians) the Biblical name for Assyria, settled between the Euphrates and Tigris Rivers. Arphaxad (The Babylonians) settled in Chaldea. Lud (The Lydians) settled in Asia Minor, but some of them sailed across the Mediterranean and settled in northern Africa, and Aram (The Syrians) the Biblical name for Syria, located north and east of Israel. Their descendants spread to the coastlands around the Mediterranean and lived in harmony with Shem’s people. This was a first hint that the Gentiles also would be blessed by the gospel of Jesus Christ, for the offspring of Shem inherited the Promised Land
Ham (Hamites), had four sons who were believed to have eventually settled in Southwest Asia, Canaan, and Africa. Their names are: Cush (The Ethiopians) settled in Ethiopia south of Egypt, also early in their history some of them migrated to an area north of the Persian Gulf. Mizraim (The Egyptians) the Bible name for Egypt, settled in northeastern Africa. Phut (The Libyans) sometimes translated Libya, settled in northern Africa. Canaan (The Canaanites) settled above Africa east of the Mediterranean (Later was given to the Hebrews). Hams grandson Nimrod, was a mighty hunter, and king over Babel. Nimrod also built the ancient city of Nineveh, which later played a part in the story of Jonah.
Japheth means ‘may he have space’ or ‘may God enlarge’ (Japhethites), had seven sons who were believed to have eventually migrated to Europe and Asia. Their names are: Gomer (Gomerites) settled north of the Black Sea, but afterwards his descendants probably occupied Germany, France, Spain and the British Isles. The Jewish historian Flavius Josephus records that the people who were called Galatians or Gauls in his day (c. AD 93) were previously called Gomerites. They migrated westward to what are now called France and Spain. For many centuries France was called Gaul, after the descendants of Gomer. North-west Spain is called Galicia to this day. Other members of their clan settled along the way, including in Armenia. Magog (The Scythians) lived north of the Caspian Sea; part of Romania and the Ukraine was Scythia. Madai (The Medes) settled south of the Caspian Sea. Along with Shems son Elam, Madai is the ancestor of our modern-day Iranians. Since 1935 they have called their country Iran. The Medes also settled India. Javan (The Ionians or Greeks) Javan is the Hebrew name for Greeks, they settled in Greece. Tubal (The Turks) lived south of the Black Sea. Meshech (The Slavs) lived between the Black and Caspian Seas. Tiras (The Etruscans) located west of the Black Sea.
