B'reshit (pronounced "buh-ray-SHEET") is the first word (and, in Hebrew, the title) of the book called Genesis in English-language Bibles. It means "in beginning." Interestingly, the article "the" is missing from the word -- if it was "in THE beginning," it would be pronounced "bah-ray-SHEET" instead.
