Comparing Eva And Adam's Story

During his childhood, he was blessed with an individual spirit and the intelligence to understand the knowledge of the world. In spite of this, he reckoned his abilities as transgressions. He acknowledged that the way of life was that “Everything which comes from the many is good. Everything which comes from the one is evil” (Rand 85). Equality strives to accept the totalitarian society and consequently, he desperately struggles to disregard his abilities and subdue his desires. The grisly effects of society are portrayed immensely through the profound sense of guilt he suffers while committing the Sin of Preference. He continually recites that, “We are nothing. Mankind is all. By the grace of our brothers are we allowed our lives. We exist through, by, and for our brothers who are the State. Amen” (Rand 21). Gradually, his aspirations contradict with the dogma of society. He discovers that he finds more joy committing the Sin of Preference rather than restraining himself from happiness, which ultimately, allows him to elude his conscious premises. Equality’s belief that “[he] [has] torn [himself] from the truth which is [his] brother men… [he] knows [this], but [he] [does] not care” (Rand 76) marks his complete triumph over collectivism. Prior to his transformation, he belonged to a society in which the Sin of Preference revoked all rights for any desire, which ultimately disallowed citizens to think for freely. If permitted to do so, no

Adam within the Book of Genesis is depicted as a man who cares deeply for the paradise he has been granted by god and aims to maintain the gift he was endowed. Jose himself takes responsibility to make sure that the village he creates is one that thrives and remains for many years to come. Both display respect towards the gift they have been given as well the responsibility to maintain it. Although the intentions of both Jose and Adam are pure of heart towards the creation of their paradises they both eventually fall victim to their own devices, a subject that will discussed in the subsequent paragraph.

Recognition of a failure to follow God’s commands brings about new capabilities. In violating God’s commandments, Adam and Eve come to learn that they can choose to live

This is mainly due to the lack of respect and attention Eve receives from Adam and the other angels. Also, it is very significant that God creates Eve from Adam’s rib making her from a man who is thought to be more dominating. Many of us have heard of the story that Satan coerced Eve into eating the forbidden fruit. But many do not realize that the most important lesson learned from her situation is you can not hide from your mistakes and you should not blame others for them. But instead, when you are respected and loved by someone, they should stay by your side and agree with your decisions. These works are very significant when it comes to love and respect for your significant other. We learn that without respect like in the case of The Wife of Bath, she will end up demanding it until she finally gets it. And in the case of Imoinda and Oroonoko, we find what seems to be the perfect couple, but their love is too strong and ends up being the death of both of them. And finally with the case of Adam and Eve, the two perfect humans actually turn out not being so perfect. But Adam stands by his love decision and supports her. Their love is an example of a true and healthy relationship and it all it took was for them to look at each other as equal and stand by one another

The first Adam failed the test, and in doing so involved all humanity in his defeat, dragging the human race down with him As a result, in Adam we all

This original holiness inherent in our first parents, Adam annd Eve was disrupted by the temptation of Satan the angel of evil. Tempted by Satan, Adam and Eve forsook their loving relationship with God in deference to selfishness and lack of trust in the Creator. The first sin of disobedience resulted in death to the spiritual nature of humankind. The lack of grace prevents a person from inheriting everlasting spiritual life after bodily death.

Cain grew up as the very first child in the world. He was the son of Adam and Eve, the handcrafted creations of God at the beginning of time. Cain grew up with a younger brother named Abel. He worked as a gardener while Abel was a herdsman. The turning point in Cain’s life was during harvest time when he brought a sacrifice of vegetables to God while his brother brought the best lamb he had. God accepted Abel’s offering but rejected Cain’s. This threw Cain into an uncontrollable rage in which he planned the murder of his brother. Even though God warned Cain to subdue his evil intentions, Cain murdered his brother. This caused God to curse Cain as an endless wonderer. Cain’s sin was infected into all his descendants to the point of God whipping the slate clean in a flood only to save Cain’s brother’s second brother Seth’s descendant – Noah and his family.

The story of Adam and Eve describes how man was created in the image of God and how man was deceived by the Serpent. Eve was manipulated to think that eating fruit would not cause the repercussion that she originally anticipated. Eve’s actions in essence was the first sin, and even though the first sin was brought upon through deception, Eve was still held accountable for her

When reading any type of literature about Adam and Eve, you are most likely persuaded that she was the start of messing up mankind. Eve was known for being a weak women and having a vein personality. Although, Eve was known for all of these ruthless things, in literature, readers are never fully aware of how compliant, loyal and passionate she was to her significant

God intended for Adam and Eve, to choose His Spirit (tree of life) as the source of life and wisdom, rather than their own experience of good and evil. Fear, separation, mistrust, blame and a myriad of other emotions and attitudes were now a part of Adam and Eve's world. They scurried to cover themselves, to hide from the presence of God.

In Genesis III, the story of original sin is told, where Adam and Eve fall from the grace of God and into the everyday sufferings of mankind. It can be easy to interpret Eve as the greater sinner of the pair, and often, scholarly works of early and medieval Christianity, and other religions influenced by the Old Testament, has done that. One can see how this line of thinking is attractive to those analyzing Genesis as Eve is in fact the original perpetrator of the sin, and the one who gets Adam to enact the same sin as her, bringing about the end of human bliss with God. However, some in the theological community would argue that it is in fact Adam that is the greater sinner of the pair. Now while the reasoning in early Christianity can be fairly sexist in tone, it is very credible in that it uses direct biblical evidence as the structuring for its argument. The above would be an important conclusion to come to in the theological community, as it would remove centuries worth of blame on the woman when referring to original sin and the downfall of man in the eyes of God. In the following paragraphs, the historical perspective on the failings of Eve will be discussed, followed by the argument for why Adam is in fact the one to blame in this story. I will conclude on a personal analysis and reflection on which of the pair seems more to blame in the context of Biblical teachings, as well as what that conclusion would mean for women within these communities.

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth ex nihilo (out of nothing). After God created the earth he made “the adam” out of the dust of the earth and by breathing into his nostrils made the man living. Everything God created was Good, the man was also good but only with woman was man complete. God created woman from the rib of Adam. Both Adam and his partner Eve were both placed in the Garden of Eden where they were to live and eat from, everything in the Garden except from the Tree of Knowledge, Good, and Evil. However one day a serpent came to Eve and asked made her question the command of not eating from the tree. The serpent told her that she could have knowledge and become like God if she ate from the tree. Both Adam and Eve ate from the tree and disobeyed God’s divine command. God in turn cursed the serpent as well as Adam and Eve. He told Adam that he would struggle and toil with the land and also that he will return to the dust just as he was created from it. God had to punish Adam and Eve for the disobedient act from where human corruption became apparent.

The Fall of Humanity speaks a lot of why we as humans act the way we do. Based on the book of Genesis, we see how Adam and Eve’s decisions affected not only them but the people of today and the future people to come. Because of the first humans decisions many if not all things are explain why humans act the way we do.

Soon after, Adam and Eve had two sons, and their names were Cain and Abel. Due to sibling rivalry and jealously, “Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.” (Genesis 4:8, NIV). This is the first murder in the Bible and is the starting point of much more sin entering the world. The human race continued to get

and Eve could no longer see God as He truly was, made a difference in their relation to Him. Two persons
