Synopsis

The First Book of Moses, Called Genesis: Translated into Grebo Tongue is a book written by John Payne in 1850. This book is a translation of the first book of the Bible, Genesis, into the Grebo language. The Grebo language is spoken by the Grebo people of Liberia, West Africa. The book includes the creation story, the story of Adam and Eve, the story of Cain and Abel, and the story of Noah and the flood. The translation was done to make the Bible accessible to the Grebo people, who at the time were not familiar with the Christian faith. The book is a valuable resource for those interested in the history of Christianity in Africa and the role of translations in spreading the faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
