Genesis

The LXX calls the book Genesis which means in greek "origin" or "birth".


The DSS and SP call the book Bereshit which means in Samaritan and Aramaic "in the beginning"


This book of origins represents the beginning of humanity with a story of loss/sin, hope/covering, and a covenant to reunite humanity with God. The art represents an intention of God to redeem humanity. The woman of promise trusts God with Seth and the line of godliness to finish what was started. I utilized Ethiopian Oriental Orthodox style since their books have the most ancient illustrations in terms of volume.
