It covers various Biblical episodes and and open with the Creation of the World and arrive at the Garden of Eden with Adam (Michael Parks) and Eve, Cain and Abel (Richard Harris and Franco Nero play brothers-turned-enemies) Noah (John Huston, though Charles Chaplin and Alec Guinness was also offered the role ) and the Flood and the story of Nimrod (Stephen Boyd), King of Babel and the emergence of man's vanity. The title is a bit of a misnomer as the film only covers the first 22 chapters of the first book of Genesis. Spectacular as well as extravagant production of the first part of the book of Genesis and dealing with five of the early stories in the Old Testament.
