I am one of those who had been reading the Sacred Scriptures of the Hebrew people, and the wisdom of the Scriptures never failed to amaze me. It does not only give me inspiration and insights, but it also gives me a peek into the wisdom of the Almighty who wrote the Bible's first two pages.
Wait a minute! The Bible's first book is Genesis and the scribes wrote all of them, of course. But the whole book of Genesis which begins with the word "Bereshit" (in the beginning) was based on the letters of the original first two pages which starts with the word "Anoki" (I am). And these two pages are not found in Genesis but somewhere else!
Remember, when the children of Israel left Egypt, they brought with them their tales and their stories handed to them from generation to generation by word of mouth. They also brought with them the understanding of the Egyptian hieroglyphics which they cared not to use in transcribing their stories. Then how did they come up with Genesis in writing?
Only a few months after the Hebrews left Egypt, Moses (peace be upon him), the Hebrew leader went up to meet with the Almighty at Mount Sinai where he was given the two tablets of the Testimonies, the tablets of stone inscribed by the finger of the Almighty. In them were the Ten Commandments, and a new hieroglyphics for the Hebrews to learn which they were to use in transcribing the additional instructions which they were to receive, and the stories which had been handed down to them. In these two tablets were the very letters they used in writing the stories of Genesis and all others up to Deuteronomy.
