Genesis Fall

The document describes the biblical story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. It explains that God placed Adam and Eve in the garden and commanded them not to eat from the Tree of Knowledge. A serpent tempted Eve to eat the forbidden fruit, which she and Adam then both ate. As punishment, God cursed the serpent to crawl on its belly, cursed Eve with painful childbirth and subjugation to man, and cursed Adam to toil in difficult labor until death. God expelled Adam and Eve from the garden to prevent them from eating from the Tree of Life and gaining immortality.
