First Book of Adam and Eve

First Book of Adam and Eve

by Rutherford Hayes Platt

The 'First Book of Adam and Eve' is a Christian pseudepigraphical work, thought to originate from the 5th or 6th century AD. It expands upon the biblical story of Adam and Eve's expulsion from the Garden of Eden, exploring their subsequent struggles and the impact of their sin on the world. The book focuses on Adam's profound sorrow and helplessness outside the paradise they lost, highlighting his longing for the lost innocence and the presence of God. It delves into the themes of temptation, suffering, and the consequences of disobedience. The book also features the story of Enoch, a righteous figure who ascends to heaven, offering a glimpse of hope and redemption within the context of human sinfulness.
