Adam and Eve

...the Lord God formed a man from the dust of the ground...

...and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life...

...and the man became a living being.

So, God made man. What about cavemen? Were there really stupid knuckle-dragging trogledytes grunting around saying "Oooh, aaahh?" Nope. God made people very smart all the way at the beginning. Plenty of people lived in caves a long time ago. David lived in a cave for a long time, but he was extremely smart. He wrote longs of songs and he could play the harp. He lived in a cave, but that doesn't make him stupid. Let's watch a short movie about cavemen called Neanderthals.

Now the Lord God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he had formed.

The Lord God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground—trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food.

In the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.

And the Lord God commanded the man, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil,

for when you eat from it you will certainly die.

The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”

Now the Lord God had formed out of the ground all the wild animals and all the birds in the sky.

He brought them to the man to see what he would name them; and whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name.

But still there was no helper just right for him.

So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs...

So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.

Male means boys or gentlemen. Female means girls or ladies.

Let's watch a little video about Adam's Rib

Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?”

The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, but God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’ ”

“You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman. “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”

When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it.

Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.

Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the LORD God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the LORD God among the trees of the garden. But the LORD God called to the man, “Where are you?”

He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid.” And he said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”

The man said, “The woman you put here with me—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.” Then the LORD God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”

The LORD God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them.
