Summary of the Book of Genesis

Summary of the book of Genesis In Genesis chapters 1-11, God created the universe and all living things in the p of 7 days. He created Adam and let him reside in the Garden of Eden so they may maintain it. The Garden of Eden has river that flows through it, and splits into four headstreams, Pishon, Gihon, Tigris, and Euphrates. Soon after, God created woman, whom we know as Eve. The fall of man followed as Adam and Eve ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and God banished them from the Garden of Eden.

Adam and Eve Gave birth to Abel and Cain, Cain killed his brother Abel and Lived in the land of Nod, East of Eden. Soon the children of Adam and Eve soon bore children of their own, and their children’s children had children of their own, so on and so forth. At each passing generation their life ps become shorter. God decided to destroy all living things but allowed Noah and his family to be saved.

He told them to make and Ark and bring seven of every kind of clean animal, 2 of every unclean animal and seven of every kind of bird, so that their lives will be spared from the flood. The ark stopped at Mt. Ararat, and they all stepped out of the ark onto dry land, and Soon after they repopulated the earth. When the people, who all had a common language and vocabulary, started building the tower of Babel, God confused their language and spread them all over the earth. In Genesis chapters 12-25, it now begins the story of Abraham.

God’s call of Abram and the covenant with him in which he was promised that his descendants should inherit the land of Canaan, that they should become a great nation and that through them all nations of the earth would be blessed. Abram’s name is changed to Abraham and Ishmael is born to Abraham and Hagar, Sarah’s handmaid. Sodom and Gomorrah was destroyed and the Lord sparing Lot’s life. Abraham deceived Abimelech concerning Sarah, his wife. And Sarah bore a child just as the Lord promised them, and they named him “Isaac”.

God also tested Abraham’s faith by making him offer his only son as a burnt offering to Him. Soon after, Sarah died and they bought the family burial ground from the Hittites, and the betrothal of Isaac and Rebekah. At the end of this section, Abraham’s death is recorded and the generations of Ishmael are given. And the story of Isaac was given and that he has twin sons, Jacob and Esau. In chapters 27-37, the story of Jacob and Esau were written. Jacob leaves home, after receiving his father’s blessing by deceit. It was on this journey that he experienced the vision of the adder at Bethel. Jacob’s family and his return from Haran to Canaan. Chapters 29-33 gives an account of Jacob’s marriages, the birth of most of his children, the shrewd dealings between Laban and Jacob and the departure of Jacob from Haran. After leaving Haran and wrestling with the angel, Jacob came into contact with Esau, but without the conflict which had been feared. And finally in chapters 34-36 both lineages of Jacob and Esau were recorded. In the last arc of the Book of Genesis, chapters 37-50, the story of Joseph was written.

Joseph, the seventeen year old son of Jacob, because of the jealousy of his brothers, is sold into Egypt where, after a series of events, he becomes a ruler of Egypt, ranking just under Pharaoh. Joseph’s brothers come to Egypt to buy food during a time of great famine. After a time, Joseph reveals his identity to his brethren. Joseph insisted that Jacob and his family settle in Egypt. Jacob blessed Joseph’s two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim, and gave his prophecy concerning the twelve tribes. And at the final chapter of the Book of Genesis, was the recorded death of Joseph and Jacob.
