English = Beginning

Hebrew
= בהתחלה

the word in the center "beginning" is the word we will be doing the study on and around that word are the other Hebrew words that are used for the word beginning in different places of the Bible. The largest and bold one of these words means it is the most common used translation in Hebrew of the word beginning which we have highlighted in a yellow circle.

now we take the word in the upper diagram that is in the yellow circle and place it in a word search to come up with all the English words used to represent the Hebrew word shown.

Below here are all the instances in the Bible where this Hebrew translation of beginning is used. So it would be a good idea to read each verse carefully and by using the word beginning in each one of these instances write down on a piece of paper what you believe this meaning should be by how it is used in the context of that verse.
