Item Description...
The Genesis story begins with the creation of Man and Woman, the sin committed by Adam and Eve, and the temptation by the snake, which led to their banishment from Paradise. The story continues with the first crime committed by mankind, Cain’s murder of his brother, the condemnation of God, mankind’s corruption and evil, and God’s regret for having created earth. The choice of Noah, a just and upright man, to build the Ark, the flood and its clearing the way for a new mankind, the pact of the eternal Covenant between God and all living beings, are told through the clear and simple words of an old nomad shepherd.
Gift of Grace Books was established to glorify God in thanksgiving for his abundant grace.
2 Corinthians 4:15 "All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is reaching more and more people may cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God." |

 | good movie Aug 4, 2007 |
| It was not what I thought it would be, but it was good enough to recommend. | | |  | cheesy film Jul 17, 2007 |
| The video on Genesis is really poor, and very unlike later examples in the series. I've been happy with "Abraham" and "Jeremiah", but this one just isn't able to capture the creation story very well. | | |  | Missing the Sublime Oct 5, 2006 |
| The deluge of actions pact stories makes us miss the sublime. That is the case in this film. The film works at capturing the ugliness of sin and the sublime beauty of the Word of the Lord. Give it a chance. | | | | I Dec 28, 2005 |
| Yes, I was disappointed in this video, and I regret purchasing it. I also expected more of it, having enjoyed very much previous releases like Esther, Jeremiah, and Solomon. Much of my disappointment was in discovering that most of it was not a dramatization; the scenes being viewed often did not relate to the story being told, and this reduces the video's usefulness as a teaching tool for Bible study. I differ with some previous reviewers in that I felt there was not enough concern for Biblical accuracy in some spots, notably in the story of the flood. Noah's ark as pictured did not appear to be of the dimensions or shape clearly described in Genesis 6:14-16. Genesis 7:13 lists 8 persons who entered the ark; the grandchildren of Noah were not born until after they left the ark when the flood had abated. In the movie, there appears to be a small crowd getting on board the ark, including a lot of children. And all those leaks in the roof of the ark that could be seen constantly dripping do not make sense at all: if Noah was a good enough builder to build a vessel that was seaworthy and did not leak below the water line, why is there any reason to think he was incapable of building its roof to not leak? After all, he followed God's instructions ("according to all that God commanded him, so did he" Gen. 6:22), applying tar both inside and outside the ark (Gen. 6:14). These scenes do not respect the details of the story as given in the book of Genesis. What is the point of claiming to make a movie based on the Bible, and then not basing it on the Bible? | | |  | Great Jul 9, 2005 |
I must admit when first watching this, I was feeling dissapointed in that it's not entirely like the other movies in the Bible series. However, once getting into it I began to see why it was made how it was.
Nowhere in the movie is there a date as to when the old man or his family were living. It shows how the story of Creation up to the Flood were passed on from genertion to generation. Families knew their history beyond their own generation (something lost in our culture). This is how it was done back in the day. Remember there was a time when Scripture was not yet written down. It was preserved and kept in this fashion. Cool thing, the Hebrews had common understanding of the Lord, without anything written. Ever wonder how the Israelites in Egypt would know who the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is? Because it was passed on.
With that in mind, this makes for a great movie. The quiet parts give time to reflect on God's creation. God cares about all of it, not just people. He said that all He had made was good. | | | Write your own review about The Bible: Genesis
