CUSTOM JAVASCRIPT / HTML
The book of Genesis is often one of the most misunderstood books of the Bible. From the creation story to the Garden of Eden, there is plenty to unpack in the first book of the Pentateuch. The symbol for the book of Genesis in the Word on Fire Bible depicts the hand of God, featured among the clouds and rays of light, which highlight creation and are associated with divine presence and power throughout the Old and New Testaments.
