Genesis is a Greek word meaning "origin," "source," "generation," or "beginning. It is the fist book of the greatest prophet of the Old Testament, Moses and through whom God revealed the Torah which consists of the first five books of the Hebrew Scriptures.
Genesis covers the period from the creation of the first human beings through the death of Joseph. Moses wroth the Torah during the Hebrew wilderness wanderings after the exodus out of Egypt which likely took place in the 15th century B.C., though some scholarship suggests a 13th century B.C. date.
The first eleven chapters include several types of ancient near-eastern literary forms, including royal chronicle, poetry, and Hebrew historical narrative with poetic elements; chapters 12 through the end are Hebrew historical narrative.
The first chapter is a royal chronicle, a form in which temporal elements, whether order or duration, are structural and not literal.
The book is historical narrative interlaced with metaphorical language and one must have discernment and reflect on what the author is conveying or fundamental misunderstanding and misinterpretation of the book's message results.
