Judaism’s history begins around 2000 BCE with the Covenant between God (Elohim) and Abraham (vegetarian). Over a thousand years later, as the Jewish faithful Believe, God's (Elohim’s) laws and commandments were revealed to the Prophet Moses (vegetarian) on Mount Sinai, forming the Torah, which is the first part of the Hebrew Bible. The Hebrew Bible, or Tanakh, and the ancient writings of the Talmud, embody the beliefs and practices of Judaism. Present in every aspect of the religion is a single, omniscient, and compassionate God (Elohim). The Book of Genesis, the first book of the Torah, describes the story of creation and the origins of humankind as well as the lives of the early patriarchs and matriarchs. It also states very clearly in the Book of Genesis that humans were required to follow a plant-based diet. “And God said, ‘Behold, I have given you every herb yielding seed, which is upon the face of all the Earth, and every tree, in which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed— to you it shall be for food…” Chapter 1, verse 29, Book of Genesis Today, we are pleased to present selections from Chapters 1 and 2 from the Book of Genesis: Chapter 1 details how God created Heaven and Earth, day and night, and the animal-people. Hes also created humans in the likeness of Hiers image and advised that all the herbs and plants shall be our food. Chapter 2 continues that God created humans from dust and breathed life into us, which is our soul.
