Genesis A
''Genesis A'' is the name given by scholars to the earlier half of an Old English poetic adaptation of the Biblical book of Genesis, and is also called the Elder Genesis. The poem is fused with what scholars now consider a separate and distinct work, ''Genesis B'', found in the Junius Manuscript, which has been held in the Bodleian Library at the University of Oxford since 1677.
== Summary ==
''Genesis A'' begins before Biblical Genesis--not with the creation of the world but with the creation of Heaven and the angels and with Satan's war on Heaven.〔lines 1-102〕 Then the poet describes the days of creation, culminating with the creation of Adam and a description of the Garden of Eden.〔lines 103-234〕 After this, the poem scholars call ''Genesis B'' resumes the story of Adam in the Garden,〔''Genesis B'', lines 235-245〕 while also going back to the war on Heaven ''Genesis A'' already discussed.〔''Genesis B'', lines 246 ff〕
