so begins the first book of the old testment called Genesis. God made the world taking six days to complete the work, On the first day, God said "Let there be light" and the light came. He created light dividing it from darkness and calling it day while the darkness was called night. On the second day God separated the Heavens or sky, from the land. On the third day He gathered the waters of the land in one place and the dry land that appeared He called Earth. Then God created grass, tree, and other plants to grow on the Earth. Next god created the sun to rule the day and the moon to rule the night. Also on the fourth day He created the star. Then, on the fifth day God created creatures of the water and sky, fish and bird. Finally, on the last day of creation God made the animals of the land. And God decided to make one animal different from the others. So he made man in God's own image and told man he would be the ruler of this world. And on the seventh day God rested; therefore this day of the week I considered holy and called the sabbath.
This first man God named Adam and placed him in a beautiful garden called Eden to live. But when God saw Adam qas alone He put Adam to sleep and from Adam's side God took a rib from which He made a women who was given the name Eve, these two were naked but were not ashamed because of their innocence.
God had given Adam and Eve every plant, tree and animal in the garden to eat, except He had forbidden them to eat the fruit from one particular tree (sometimes called the Tree of Knowledge.) This beautiful world would not remain innocent for long however
At this point evil in the from of a serpent entered the garden. This snake was actually God's enemy Satan or the Devil. Satan had originally been one of God's angles and had the name Lucifer which means Morning Star. But Lucifer became too proud and rebelled against God. Because of this he was expelled from Heaven and cast into Hell.
Now Satan, in order to spoil God's world, approached Eve and tempted her to eat the fruit of the forbidden tree saying it would make her as God. Eve was persuades and after she ate it, gave some fruit to Adam who also ate some of it. Immediately they realized their sin and because of their knowledge knew they were naked and were ashamed. Using some leaves to cover their bodies, they hid themselves from God.
when God came to the garden He found them and reproached them for disobeying Him. as punishment Adam and Eve were driven out of Eden. From that time onward Adam and his descendants would have to earn their living by hard work. Eve's punishment was to have to suffer the pain of childbirth. and most tragically because of their sin, death came into the world so that all humans were doomed to die.
