This document provides an overview of the plot and structure of the book of Genesis in the Bible. It discusses the beginning chapters that cover creation and Adam and Eve, as well as key stories involving Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph. The document analyzes how Genesis builds tension around whether God's chosen seed will survive and be righteous before resolving these tensions. It focuses on how the story of Jacob and his son Joseph marks both a climax of tension and a resolution as the Israelites are established in Egypt.
God asked Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac to test Abraham's faith and obedience. While this seems contrary to God hating child sacrifice, it demonstrated Abraham's devotion to God. The test also showed God that Abraham feared him, though God already knew this. The story of Genesis follows the tension of whether Abraham's descendants would survive and be righteous, which is resolved through God's covenant with Abraham after the test.

Editor's Notes
Three episodes related by chronology.A: 10:00 am I went to the store.B: 10:15 I met John in the dairy aisleC: I came home without the eggs.
Three episodes related by cause and effect.I came home from the store and gave my wife the groceries. When she looked in the bag she asked, “Where are the eggs?”I said, “Oh no. I went to the story and got everything but the eggs, then I went to the dairy aisle where I met John. We chatted for about 5 minutes and I forgot left the store without getting the eggs.”
Three episodes related by a movement from tension to resolution.Every Saturday morning since we we’re married 15 years ago we’ve made my aunt’s famous pancake recipe breakfast. It’s kind of a ritual in our family. Well this year on the Friday before Easter we colored eggs with our kids. On Saturday, when we went to make our pancake recipe, the one we’ve been making every Saturday for 15 years, we discovered that we forgot to set aside two eggs for our pancakes. So I said, don’t worry, I’ll go to the store and be back in 30 minutes. So as long as I was going to the story my wife gave me three other things to pick up from the store. So I went to the store and got everything but the eggs. Just as I came to the dairy aisle I met John, we chatted for a couple of minutes and for some reason I had it in my head that I had already gotten the eggs. So I checked out went home and my wife opens up the bag and with this irritated voice says, “OK Where are the eggs?”That was the first time in 15 years that we had cereal for breakfast on Saturday.
We have the repetition of most all the main events of the Gen 3 scene after the account of the sin.The are repeated in the same order with the exception of 4:7Of all the repetitions, 4:7 is the most obvious repetition, it is word for word the same constructions changing only the appropriate pronouns, and it contains a word that occurs only 3 times in Scripture.

In this chapter we have the seed of Eve which we expect to help us return to creation rest. Cain as the firstborn seed of Eve is the most eligible to serve as the seed through which we should expect a return to Eden. But instead of returning Cain is taking us further away both because he himself is unrighteous and is expelled further from the garden and is thus disqualified as the seed of Gen 3:15 and because he has killed Abel who is righteous and so eligible to serves as the seed of the line of promise. Though righteousness is not mentioned here explicitly, it is certainly a part of the narrative and this narrative becomes a paradigm for the rest of the book. First it starts several themes that become important. The destruction of the seed due to unrighteous behavior, the non-preference of the primogeniture, conflict between brothers, and the threat to the survival of the seed.
