Ramban on Genesis
THIS IS THE BOOK OF THE GENERATIONS OF ADAM. These are the children He will mention in the chapter.473So Rashi and Ibn Ezra. In my opinion, this alludes to the entire Torah, for the entire Torah is the book of the generations of Adam. Therefore, He says here “book” and does not say, “And these are the generations of Adam,” as He says in other places, e.g. And these are the generations of Ishmael;474Genesis 25:12. And these are the generations of Isaac,475Ibid., Verse 19. and so in all such cases.
