Genesis: The Foundation of Divine Revelation.

This Is Appendix 2 From The Companion Bible.

Genesis is the seed-plot of the whole Bible. It is essential to the true understanding of its every part. It is the foundation on which Divine Revelation rests; and on which it is built up. It is not only the foundation of all Truth, but it enters into, and forms part of, all subsequent inspiration; and is at once the warp and woof of Holy Writ.

Genesis is quoted or referred to sixty times in the New Testament; and Divine authority is set like a seal on its historical facts. See Matthew 19:4-6; 24:37-39. Mark 7:4,10; 10:3-8. Luke 11:49-51; 17:26-29,32. John 1:51; 7:21-23; 8:44-56.

It, and the Book of the Law, of which it forms part, are ascribed to Moses. See Deuteronomy 31:9,10,24-26. Joshua 1:7; 8:32,35; 23:6. 1Kings 14:6; 23:25. 2Chronicles 23:18; 30:16; 34:14. Ezra 3:2; 7:6. Nehemiah 8:1. Daniel 9:11,13. Malachi 4:4. Mark 12:26. Luke 2:22. John 7:23. Acts 13:39; 15:5; 28:23. 1Corinthians 9:9. Hebrews 10:28.
