'''The Book of Genesis'''
+
This book is so called from its treating of the Generation, that is, of the creation and the beginning of the world. The Hebrews call it Beresith, from the word with which it begins. It contains not only the history of the Creation of the world; but also an account of its progress during the space of 2369 years, that is, until the death of Joseph. (For more information, see the article [http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/11646c.htm PENTATEUCH] in the Catholic Encyclopedia.)[http://www.newadvent.org/bible/gen000.htm]
