👉 Begottenness is a concept in philosophy that describes the process by which an individual or entity is created from its parents, or more specifically, the process of birth. It refers to the initial union between an organism and its mother, as described in the Bible's account of creation, where Adam and Eve were first made from God's rib. In this context, begottenness implies that the essence and characteristics of a being are not inherited from its parents but rather are determined by its very existence
