Genesis

Modern Biblical art: Parhsat Toldot : Blessing of Jacob (detail)

Modern Biblical art from the Book of Genesis

In the beginning G-d created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was empty and void, and darkness was on the face of the deep, and the spirit of G-d was hovering over the face of the waters. And G-d said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. G-d saw the light that it was good, and G-d separated between the light and between the darkness. And G-d called the light day, and the darkness He called night, and it was evening and it was morning: One day.  – Genesis Ch 1

A beautiful song based on text from from Genesis is Yonatan Razel’s “Katonti.“

It is from Yaakov’s (Jacob’s) prayer to be delivered from the anger of his brother:

I am not worthy of all the mercies,
and of all the truth,
which​ Thou hast shown unto Thy servant;

For with my staff
I passed over this Jordan;
and now I am become two camps.

Deliv​er me, I pray Thee!

For great is Thy mercy toward me; and Thou hast delivered​ my soul from the lowest nether-wo​rld.

Genesis 32:11,12 & Psalm 86:13
