tell me about Genesis how its relevance to literature?

Answer 1

Genesis(Hebrew: בראשית, Greek: Γένεσις, having the meanings of "birth", "creation", "cause", "beginning", "source" and "origin") is the first book of the Torah, the first book of the Tanakh and also the first book of the Christian Old Testament. As Jewish tradition considers it to have been written by Moses, it is sometimes also called The First Book of Moses. Fairly common among Abrahamic followers is the belief that the book was Divinely Inspired (written by Yahweh through a human), and is therefore Infallible.

In Hebrew, it is called בראשית (B'reshit or Bərêšîth, Hebrew word #7225 in Strong's), after the first word of the text in Hebrew (meaning "in the beginning"). This is in line with the pattern of naming the other four books of the Pentateuch.

Answer 2

Most sections of the Bible have some relevance to literature in that it is alluded to in all sorts of literature.

Off the top of my head, the only Genesis allusion I can think of is "East of Eden."

Answer 3

As first book it is very important. It all started in Eden.

Eden is the start of this world. Isa,14:12-14; Eze.28:13-15 the cherub anointed over Eden, called Lucifer means day star and world leaders are compared to him, called serpent Gen.3:1-5; decieved Eve into obeying him. John 8:44; from here he caused the death of every offspring of Adam.
As god he 2Cor.4:3,4 and fallen angels are enemies of Michael and holy angels of Gen.3:15 and of God and Christ.
Angels sinned before flood Gen.6:2,4; Jude 6: 1Pet.3:18-20; 2Pet.2:4; they will be judged 1Cor.6:2,3 as saints are the judges. Rev.5:11 Angels are vast in number and do not die Luke 20:34-36;
Jesus age 30 faced Satan Matt.4:1-11; in world Empire #6 Rome. Jesus was crucified,
HE COULD HAVE HAD 12 LEGIONS OR 72,000 ANGELS INSTEAD, but was crucified,
resurrected and ascended John 3:13-17; Acts 2:27-35; Heb.1:1-13; Rom.16:20; Luke 10:18; Dan.12:1-13 and Rev.12:6-11,12; until Michael and holy angels cast Satan and unholy angels out of heaven and down to footstool earth at the end of world Empire #7 and they have a short time in 8th world Empire as John 6:39,40,44; 14:3 a place is prepared for [ the heavenly raised up ], those Jesus went to prepare a place for, that where he was, there they may be also, and the Jude 9 Michael is there to the end 1Thes.4:15-17; So when the last are raised up, Satan is put in the pit and that is the end of this world.
Matt.24:3,7,14,15,22,34,36-38 [ Only God knows day and hour, 1Thes.5:1-9,21; Jesus coming, does not come as a thief in the night to children of the light of times and seasons ];
THE WORLD WITH JESUS
Eph 2:7; 3:21; The world with Jesus is without end Rev.21:1-5 those coming down out of heaven from God make all a new and perfect as it was before Eden. 1Cor.15:22-28,51-53 at the end of the 1000 year reign all is presented to God as perfect as he intended it to be in the first place, and all are in the paradise of the kingdom of God.

TIME: Gen.1:1,2 All exist and billions in time is evident ]; Gen.1:3-31 [ 41,870 + 130 to end day six at 42,000 ]; LOST IN EDEN TO SAVED Gen,2:2,4 and Heb.4:1-12; Satan
over Eden to the end of Empire #7 is 5,980 years to 8th of the SEVEN. Rev.17:10-14;
PIT OPEN FOR SATAN Rev.9:1-5 [ 5x 30 = 150 ] 12-16 and 16:12-16 down to the end.
Dan.12:1-10 [ 2520 is 5,980 and 1914 CE ]; 11 [ 2x 1290 = 2580 ]; 12 [ 2x 1335 = ]
2670 less 2520 Satan cast down is 150 years ago THERE IS NO MORE TIME GIVEN.
Rev.20:1-6 [ the time given Jesus is 1000 years to cleanse the earth to all is new ];
