The Karton design of the Genesis window was exhibited at the Lehrter Bahnhof Exhibition in Berlin, Germany The Stained Glass rendering of this window was exhibited at the World Fair in Chicago, Ill., USA with Kuball Stained Glass Company, Hamburg. Initially this window was a commission by a church in North-Germany. The finished 16 panels were not accepted when submitted. On a black and white photograph in the Hans Grohs archive is a handwritten and signed note by the artist, stating: “Intrigues prevented acceptance”. The art of Hans Friedrich Grohs, 1892 – 1981, became subject to the political confiscation raids in 1937 and was stamped: “DEGENERATE”.

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. Genesis 1:1-2

And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.
Genesis 1:3

And God said, “Let there be an expanse between the waters to separate water from water.” God called the expanse “sky.” God called the dry ground “land” and the gathered waters he called “seas.” Genesis 1:6, 8, 10

Then God said, “Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.” Genesis 1:11

And God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark seasons and days and years, and let them be lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth.” Genesis 1:14-15

God set them in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth, to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. Genesis 1:17-18

So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living and moving thing with which the water teems, according to their kinds... Genesis 1:21

And God said, “Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the sky.” Genesis 1:20

And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind.” Genesis 1:24

“And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground--everything that has the breath of life in it--I will give every green plant for food.” Genesis 1:30

Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.” And the Lord God formed man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living being. Genesis 1:26, 2:7

Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food.” Genesis 1:29

And the Lord God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground--trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. And the Lord God commanded the man, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die.” Genesis 2:9, 16-17

So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs and closed up the place with flesh. Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. The man said, “This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called “woman,” for she was taken out of man.” Genesis 2:21-23

“You will not surely die,” the serpent said to the woman
“You will not surely die,” the serpent said to the woman. “For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. Genesis 3:4-6

“Cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat of it all the days of your life. It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field. By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return.” Genesis 3:17-19
