Etymology: "Regenesis" is a plain compound: the prefix "re-", meaning "again" or "anew", attached to "genesis," which comes from Greek "genesis," meaning "origin," "birth," or "coming into being." Put together, the word means a second birth or a fresh start, a process in which something comes into being again. Because the parts are so transparent, the word works largely as a descriptive coinage rather than a term with a long inherited history. Its appeal lies in the way "genesis," the name of the first book of the Bible and the sense of beginning from nothing, is recast as something that can happen repeatedly. A rebirth in this sense is not a return to the old state but a new origin built on what came before.
