1 Adam and Eve 21:1

Then Adam and Eve went in search of the garden.

1 Adam and Eve 21:2

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

1 Adam and Eve 21:3

But the place where they cried was close to a high mountain, facing the western gate of the garden.

1 Adam and Eve 21:4

Then Adam threw himself down from the top of that mountain; his face was torn and his flesh was ripped; he lost a lot of blood and was close to death.

1 Adam and Eve 21:5

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

1 Adam and Eve 21:6

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

1 Adam and Eve 21:7

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

1 Adam and Eve 21:8

But the merciful God, who looks over His creatures, looked at Adam and Eve as they lay dead, and He sent His Word to them, and raised them.

1 Adam and Eve 21:9

And said to Adam, "O Adam, all this misery which you have brought on yourself, will have no affect against My rule, neither will it alter the covenant of the 5, 500 years."
