Here is what an answer looks like
Why does the Torah begin with “Bereishit” (In the beginning) rather than with the first mitzvah?
Rashi opens with exactly this question, citing Rabbi Yitzchak: the Torah is a book of law, so it could have begun at the first commandment in Shemot. It begins with creation to establish that the whole earth is God’s to give — a foundation for Israel’s claim to the land. The pshat and the legal point are woven together from the first word.
