The compound word BaRaashayat (𐤁𐤓𐤀𐤔𐤉𐤕) or “Genesis” is an account of the creation of the world, the early history of humanity, 𐤉𐤔𐤓𐤀𐤋 (Yasharaal)’s ancestors, and the origins of the twelve tribes of 𐤉𐤔𐤓𐤀𐤋 (Yasharaal). The word combines Ābarayat Letter #2 𐤁 (bayat) meaning “house”, “family”, or “in” and 𐤓𐤀𐤔𐤉𐤕 (raashayat) meaning “beginning”. It is commonly mistranslated as “In The Beginning”, which would actually be BaHaRaashayat. However, the more accurate translation is “In a Beginning”.

With the language of the Ābarayam, each letter has a meaning and a number associated with it that adds meaning to each word they’re used with.
