Genesis 1

  1. Genesis 1:1-3

    Jesus reads the opening of Genesis in the synagogue at Sychar.

    1. 1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
    2. 2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
    3. 3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
  2. Genesis 1:2

    John quotes the description of the earth being formless and void when discussing his book's beginning with Mary.

    1. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
