Genesis

This book is the fifth of the five basic books that make up the Codification of Spiritism, and is the author’s most scientific work. It deals with themes regarded as incontestable by religion in the light of the immortality of the soul, unifying Spiritual thought and scientific discoveries.

Genesis: Miracles and Predictions According to Spiritism offers a unique opportunity for the reader to know and study themes of universal interest, discussed in a logical, rational and revealing manner.

It is divided in three parts:

The first part analyses the origin of planet Earth and avoids mysterious or magical interpretations about its creation.

The second part analyses the question of miracles, explaining the nature of the fluids and the extraordinary phenomena contained in the Gospel.

The third part focuses on the prophecies in the Gospel, the signs of the times and the new generation, whose advent will be the beginning of a new era for humankind based on the practice of justice, peace and fraternity.

The subjects presented in its eighteen chapters have as their basis the immutability of the grand Divine Laws.

Key themes in the book include:

• The gradual evolution of the universe and the Earth, guided by divine intelligence.
• The existence of spirits and their role in the creation and development of life.
• The multiple creations of Earth and the successive waves of humanity.
• The spiritual meaning behind biblical stories, such as the creation of Adam and Eve and the fall from grace.

Kardec's work has been influential in Spiritist circles and has been interpreted in various ways. Some see it as a literal account of creation, while others view it as a symbolic interpretation of the Bible.
