Publisher's Synopsis
The Biblical story of Adam and Eve is told in the book of Genesis when God created Adam, and then Eve. It's been retold time and again by many artists, including my father-in-law, Herbert Mandel, which is the inspiration for this explanation of "the fall." God's first recorded conversation with Adam was about the forbidden fruit from the tree of knowledge in the Garden of Eden. Adam and Eve were told they could eat anything they wanted - except the fruit from that tree. If they did, God told them they would die. Death was God's warning, before "the great fall," and the loss of innocence for mankind. Eve had been created just for Adam, a helpmate suited for him. The fall was inevitable. In Adam's defense, he fell for the most beautiful woman on earth, despite God's warning.
If you want to know exhaustively about the beginning of our world, read this book. This is a dramatic, yet Biblically accurate retelling of the Bible story of the fall of Satan, the creation of our world, the entrance of sin, and the flood. The story ends with the restoration of Adam to the Garden of Eden.
