Books of the Old Testament

Lesson 2: Genesis - Part 2

Genesis is a history of man’s failure. It begins with “God” and ends “in a coffin.” Here is an outline that divides the book into two large thoughts:

A. Entrance of sin on the earth, chs. 1-11.

1. Creation, chs. 1, 2

2. The fall, chs. 3, 4.

3. The flood, chs. 5-9.

4. Tower of Babel and confusion of tongues, chs. 10, 11.
