Genesis 1:1-2
“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty. Darkness was on the surface of the deep. God’s Spirit was hovering over the surface of the waters.”
The book of Genesis opens with this majestic statement about the origin of everything. It's the foundational narrative for the Hebrew people, setting the stage for all that follows by establishing God as the sole creator and sustainer of the cosmos.
