Day 1 - Read Genesis 1-2

The first five books of the Old Testament are called the Pentateuch (five books), the Torah (instruction), or the Books of The Law. The first book is Genesis which means beginning. Genesis tells the story of creation. God existed in the beginning, set time in motion, and created the world and everything in it. God rested on the seventh day and made it holy. He created man in His own image, male and female, and provided his plan for them to become one. God breathed life into man and put him in a garden in Eden. He told the man and woman to multiply the earth. Man was given rule over all living creatures of the earth and given fruit of the tree for food. But man was commanded not to eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
