Bible Bed Time Stories: Genesis 2: 20-3:7 by ric gustafson
When Adam was asleep, God took a rib out of him. God made a woman with that rib. God brought her to Adam. Adam named the woman Eve. They lived in peace in their beautiful garden. They cared for it. God walked with them there.
Two special trees grew in Eden. One was named the Tree of Life. God warned them about the other tree. It was called the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. God warned Adam and Eve that if they ate from that tree they would die.
There lived a serpent in the garden. The serpent said to Eve " did God say you should not eat from the Tree of Knowledge?". Eve replied " he said if we do we will die". " That is not true". The serpent lied. " Eat it and you will be like God".
Eve believed the serpent. She ate the tree's fruit. She gave some to Adam. He ate it. They knew what they had just done was wrong. Now they were afraid to meet God.
