Yes. The first book of the bible. It means beginning.

I know what it means, I just never knew it was used in the bible. This reminds of a book that I was considering on making: Its all about the future of the human race. A deceptive government enslaves all of the citizens of Earth so they can extract all of the resources for their own purposes. A group in the slave camps have devised a plan to escape and they have learned that there is a resistance moving on one of the outer colonies. The main character joins in but is cut off from the rest of the group, lots in that group were captured but the main character got away since the focus was on the group. The ruined streets are too dangerous to survive on so he must find passage of the doomed planet before he is recaptured or dead. That is my story in a nut shell, if I had time I would give more detail.

Hmm, sounds like a good rough plot, a little fine-tuning and that could be pretty good.

That was book one, I have thought of possible outcomes for 2 and 3. I might one day have high hopes for it.

It actually sounds a little similar to a book I have been thinking about called The Catacombs.
AN island nation dwells in peace, ruled by a totalitarian government. It hasa had a turbulent past, but with communistic rule, it has prospered. Now, when an oridnary citizen learns of a resistance group, he then learns the governemnt's awful secerts, and plunges the nation into Civil War.

That sounds very similar to mine. The biggest difference in mine is that the government's actions are clearly known.
