Summary :

It tells about the create of human in the earth at that time. Satan is an ambitious and conceit. He is introduced in Hell after a failed rebellion to take control of Heaven from God. Satan’s desire to rebel against his creator stems from his unwillingness to accept the fact that he is a created being and that he is not self sufficient, which roots in turn from his extreme narcissism. Adam is the first human in Eden create by God. He is the more intellectual of the two, with Eve being more rooted in experience. Eve is the second human created, taken from one of Adam’s ribs and formed into a female form of Adam. Adam and Eve have a mutually dependant relationship. Positively, she is the model of a good subject and wife. Eve is so beautiful. Her beauty not only obsesses Adam, but also herself. The God instruct Adam and Eve not to eat the fruit on the tree. But Satan deceives Adam and Eve. Satan is sly. Finally Adam and Eve eat that fruit. And God gives punishment to Adam and Eve. Because they have run against the instruction of God. From the Heaven, they are sent to the earth. And Satan is very happy, because he can deceive them. They really regret for that sin. And they hope their son is not like them. Hopefully, their son will save the human race and always does what the instruction of God. In my experience, this story is different with the true story. There are a lot of deviations in this story. For example, The God has a father. Of course, it is not true. God does not have father or mother. So, we have to read the story carefully. Do not trust the story that does not have the fact or the true sources.
