The Genesis contains diverse articles on the creation of the universe, the formation of the world, the origins of spirits and the role of divine intervention in the order of nature.
It is divided into three parts, each apparently unrelated to the others:
- The Genesis According to Spiritism (12 chapters)
- Miracles According to Spiritism (3 chapters)
- Predictions According to Spiritism (2 chapters)
The final chapter ("The Time is at Hand") is not related to either of the three parts.

His faithful dog shall bear him company.”
