The Adam and Eve story begins with God's creation of Adam. He was placed in a beautiful garden filled with all kinds of trees and animals. Then God decided Adam needed a partner, so He created Eve. They were given the freedom to enjoy the garden but with one rule. The serpent in the garden tricked Eve into believing that eating from the tree of knowledge was a good thing. Adam followed Eve's lead. Afterward, they knew they had done wrong. They felt ashamed and tried to hide from God. God then punished them by making them leave the Garden of Eden. This story has been a fundamental part of religious teachings for centuries, representing the origin of humanity and the concept of sin.
