youth Genesis The five books of Moses were collectively called the Pentateuch ,
a word of Greek origin meaning "
the five -
fold book ."
The Jews called them the Torah ,
i .
e ., "
the law ."
It is probable that the division of the Torah into five books proceeded from the Greek translators of the Old Testament .
The names by which these several books are generally known are Greek .
The first book of the Pentateuch (
q .
v .)
is called by the Jews Bereshith ,
i .
e ., "
in the beginning ",
because this is the first word of the book .
It is generally known among Christians by the name of Genesis ,
i .
e ., "
creation "
or "
generation ,"
being the name given to it in the LXX .
as designating its character ,
because it gives an account of the origin of all things .
It contains ,
according to the usual computation ,
the history of about two thousand three hundred and sixty -
nine years .
Genesis is divided into two principal parts .
The first part (
1 -
11 )
gives a general history of mankind down to the time of the Dispersion .
The second part presents the early history of Israel down to the death and burial of Joseph (
12 -
50 ).
There are five principal persons brought in succession under our notice in this book ,
and around these persons the history of the successive periods is grouped ,
viz .,
Adam (
1 -
3 ),
Noah (
4 -
9 ),
Abraham (
10 -
25 :
18 ),
Isaac (
25 :
19 -
35 :
29 ),
and Jacob (
36 -
50 ).
In this book we have several prophecies concerning Christ (

22 :

26 :

10 ).
The author of this book was Moses .
Under divine guidance he may indeed have been led to make use of materials already existing in primeval documents ,
or even of traditions in a trustworthy form that had come down to his time ,
purifying them from all that was unworthy ;
but the hand of Moses is clearly seen throughout in its composition .
