==Commentary==
Genesis is the first book of the [[Bible]]. It is a book of beginnings - the beginning of the universe and how people spoiled it, and the beginning of [[God]]'s plan to restore it through the beginning of a nation. It tells us about God, who was before time, and is the creator of everything there is. Genesis tells us that God created [[Adam]] and [[Eve]] in his image, but that they spoiled this creation, by wilful disobedience, bringing death to mankind. The book tells the stories of early humans including [[Noah]] and the Flood and [[Abraham]] and his descendants.
