genesiac

Relating to Genesis in the Bible.

Pertaining to origin.

The Virgin strikes the globe, and from it issues infinite treasures. Mine delivers the key of human destinies and the sombre enigma of the Sphinx. All that in a few touches! A little colour,—and the mystery of the world is revealed! It is cyclopean,—it is genesiac. Human genius will never transcend it.

In Greece, the phallus was so pervasive as a genesiac symbol in every phase of daily life, that there were loaves baked in phallic form.
