¶1
The Law.
¶2
In the name of God eternal, everlasting, most mighty, merciful, compassionate.
¶3
By the help of God we begin to describe the book of the law, and its interpretation, as the holy, learned, and most excellent fathers have interpreted it.
¶4
The following, therefore, is the interpretation of the first book, which indeed is the book of the creation (and) of created beings.
