The article demonstrates an attempt to elicit Biblical roots of Genetics. For this purpose several scriptural stories, particularly the story of Jacob at the time of his service at Laban’s house, are analyzed from the point of view of modern Genetics and its rules. Also, the author proposes a hypothesis which answers the question of how could it become possible that the discoverer of basic laws of Genetics was not a scientist but an Augustinian who did not possess even a university diploma. The author supposes that Gregor Mendel reproduced the Biblical experiment of Jacob with the only difference in a model object.
