Definition - “Genesis” – mean “beginnings” “birth” or “origin”; the coming into being of something.
Beginning
The book of Genesis, the first book of the Jewish Torah and Christian Bible is about beginnings---the origin of heaven and earth, the creation of the sun, the moon, the stars, animal life, marine life and plant life. Genesis describes the creation of the first man, first woman, the first sin, the origin of sin and the first homicide. It also describes GOD’s commandment regarding the first meal.
Eating Raw
For those who decide to eat raw fruits and raw vegetables on Wednesdays, drink water and tea, meditate on scripture and pray with and for others in “fellowship” it is a beginning too. Often, when someone joins this fellowship and starts to eat raw, one of their first concerns, if they have not eaten raw, before is “what to eat.”
