Adam

Out of the ground the LORD God formed every animal of the field, and every bird of the sky, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them. Whatever the man called every living creature became its name.

The man gave names to all livestock, and to the birds of the sky, and to every animal of the field; but for man there was not found a helper comparable to him.

The LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep. As the man slept, he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place.

The man said, “This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She will be called ‘woman,’ because she was taken out of Man.”

They heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden.

The LORD God called to the man, and said to him, “Where are you?”

To Adam he said, “Because you have listened to your wife’s voice, and ate from the tree, about which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it,’ the ground is cursed for your sake. You will eat from it with much labor all the days of your life.

The man called his wife Havah because she would be the mother of all the living.

The LORD God made coats of animal skins for Adam and for his wife, and clothed them.

The man knew Havah his wife. She conceived, and gave birth to Cain, and said, “I have gotten a man with the LORD’s help.”

Adam knew his wife again. She gave birth to a son, and named him Seth, “for God has given me another child instead of Abel, for Cain killed him.”

This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, he made him in God’s likeness.

He created them male and female, and blessed them. On the day they were created, he named them “Adam”.

Adam lived one hundred thirty years, and became the father of a son in his own likeness, after his image, and named him Seth.

The days of Adam after he became the father of Seth were eight hundred years, and he became the father of other sons and daughters.

All the days that Adam lived were nine hundred thirty years, then he died.

When the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the children of men, he set the bounds of the peoples according to the number of the children of Israel.

Adam, Seth, Enosh,

if like Adam I have covered my transgressions, by hiding my iniquity in my heart,

the son of Enosh, the son of Seth, the son of Adam, the son of God.

Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over those whose sins weren’t like Adam’s disobedience, who is a foreshadowing of him who was to come.

For as in Adam all die, so also in Messiah all will be made alive.

So also it is written, “The first man, Adam, became a living soul.” The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.

For Adam was first formed, then Havah.

Adam wasn’t deceived, but the woman, being deceived, has fallen into disobedience;
