Discovering the Divine Blueprint of the Gospel of the Kingdom Hidden in the Beginning
What if we have been reading the opening words of Scripture correctly—but seeing the story incompletely?
In this illustrated teaching booklet, Greg Witter invites readers to slow down at the doorway of Genesis and explore the themes that unfold throughout Scripture: creation, covenant, seed, first portion (firstfruits), headship, Kingdom, and the dwelling of Elohim among His people.
Across ten connected chapters, The Mystery of Reshit examines Bereshit, the opening word of the Hebrew text, and reshit, the term within it. Beginning with the enlarged Bet and its association with the house, the study develops a Paleo-Hebrew word picture and follows its thematic connections through the wider biblical story.
The guiding standard remains clear: The pictures illuminate. Scripture establishes. Letter pictures serve as teaching illustrations, not independent sources of doctrine or substitutes for the meaning of a passage in context.
Through the Four Witnesses—Torah, Prophets, Writings, and Apostolic Witnesses—the booklet traces the movement from beginning to restoration. The seed anticipates the harvest. The first portion points toward fullness. Messiah is revealed as the risen Firstfruits, and the covenant household is brought into view.
Inside, readers will find:
• Ten chapters arranged as one connected teaching
• Scripture quotations from The Scriptures 2009 (TS2009)
• Paleo-Hebrew letter forms and thematic associations
• Selected teaching illustrations
• Questions for study and practical response
• A reading path through the Four Witnesses
• An afterword inviting a fresh reading of Genesis 1:1
This 88-page, half-letter booklet is designed for personal study, household discussion, and assembly teaching. Keep your Bible open, examine the references, and follow the journey from the beginning toward the promised restoration.
