His parents were Tefnut and Shu who gave him the throne leaving him as heir, after the conspiracy by Apophis, who was a serpent who represented evil, which made him the third pharaoh.
God of the Earth
Geb had a sister named Nut, who was his wife, this union represented one of the couples that made up the Heliopolitan Ennead, from that relationship four children were born: Osiris, Isis, Seth, and Nephthys.

«Geb» is sometimes depicted in the form of a human carrying a goose on his head, and his name is written in two syllables «goose and man», where the man is pronounced as the letter «b». As for the goose that the ancient Egyptians chose to write the name «Jeb», it is a Nile goose that was domesticated by the ancient Egyptians in the early days.
The god «Geb» had beneficial qualities and characteristics, as green grains came out of his rib, and plants grew on his back. «Geb» was the source of fresh water, and the source of everything the earth produced, so it was directly linked to the fertility of the earth and the gate.
The power of «Geb» sometimes had harmful aspects, as earthquakes occur when he laughs, and he can prevent his blessings in times of drought, or in arid regions, and because of its importance as a distress to the earth, it may represent a grave.
«Geb» was depicted in many scenes and inscriptions in temples, and it was also associated with some characteristics of popular religion, as it was associated with healing, and its ability to heal was great, so it was supplicated to in some paragraphs in order to heal from a scorpion sting.
Although he did not have a major cult or belief of his own, he was depicted in many scenes and inscriptions in temples, and was also associated with some characteristics of popular religion, as he was associated with healing, and his ability to heal was great, so he was supplicated to in some paragraphs in order to heal from Scorpion sting.
The Egyptians believed that Jeb's laughter caused earthquakes, and that his compassion allowed plants to grow. Some priests considered him the first king of Egypt. The god "Geb" represented the embodiment of the earth, and is considered one of the most important eternal deities. His status has been evident for a long time through his frequent mention in the "Pyramid Texts" as one of the most frequently mentioned gods in the texts; he is usually compared or contrasted with the god "Ra" or other deities of importance in the afterlife to the ancient Egyptians.
Jeb was also considered the ruling Lord, and that rule had passed to King Hor as the son of the god Osiris, the grandson of the god Jeb, and the heir to his throne on earth. The lovemaking between Jeb and Nut is what gave life to Earth as they were then separated by “Shu”, the god of air. Among his nicknames: “Father of Snakes”.
Jeb is considered the heir to the lords because he is the son of the two lords, Atom and Shaw. He was closely associated with the monarchy as the father of the god "Osiris", the legendary king; The king himself was known as (the heir to "Geb"). Jeb played a tangible role in the transfer of legitimate ownership, and in the myth of the conflict between Hour and Set.
