First Book of Adam and Eve

1 Adam 22


Chapter 21

Adam and Eve attempt suicide.

1THEN Adam and Eve went in search of the garden..

2And the heat beat like a flame on their faces; and they sweated from the heat, and wept before the Lord..

3But the place where they wept was nigh unto a high mountain, facing the western gate of the garden..

4Then Adam threw himself down from the top of that mountain; his face was tom and his flesh was flayed; much blood flowed from him, and he was nigh unto death..

5Meanwhile Eve remained standing on the mountain weeping over him, thus lying..

6And she said, "I wish not to live after him; for all that he did to himself was through me.".

7Then she threw herself after him; and was torn and scotched by stones; and remained lying as dead..

8But the merciful God, who looks upon His creatures, looked upon Adam and Eve as they lay dead, and He sent His Word unto them, and raised them..

9And said to Adam, "O Adam, all this misery which thou hast wrought upon thyself, will not avail against My rule, neither will it alter the covenant of the 5500 years."
