In the book of Genesis, God not only created but interacted with His creation in a profoundly personal way. Consider the book of Genesis as a whole and God’s dominant character traits or personality present within the text. Then, in an essay of at least several paragraphs, establish a claim for God’s most significant character trait as you see it. Then support this claim with quoted evidence taken from the text. The answer is your opinion; however, a strong argument will have evidence from various locations within the text.
