The book of Genesis is the foundation for the theology of work. Any discussion of work in biblical perspective eventually finds itself grounded on passages in this book. Genesis is incomparably significant for the theology of work because it tells the story of God’s work of creation, the first work of all and the prototype for all work that follows. God is not dreaming an illusion but creating a reality. The created universe that God brings into existence then provides the material of human work—space, time, matter and energy. Within the created universe, God is present in relationship with his creatures and especially with people. Laboring in God’s image, we work in creation, on creation, with creation and—if we work as God intends—for creation.
In Genesis we see God at work, and we learn how God intends us to work. We both obey and disobey God in our work, and we discover that God is at work in both our obedience and disobedience. The other sixty-five books of the Bible each have their own unique contributions to add to the theology of work. Yet they all spring from the source found here, in Genesis, the first book of the Bible.

This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.
Which of the following was one way reformers attempted to undermine the influence of political machines?
by organizing voter registration drives in immigrant neighborhoods
by having cities adopt the council-manager form of local government
by prosecuting immigrants accused of bribery and other forms of political corruption
by establishing political councils to monitor and document the activities of the machines
Answer: by having cities adopt the council-manager form of local government
Explanation:
Progressive reformers developed a movement in the early 1900s which produced two new forms of government, and the council-manager form was one of them. This development was intended to weaken the influence of political machines in the government. Partisanism was meant to be replaced by efficiency and professionalism.
