Next He made the moon and the sun. He also made trees for the animals to eat off. Hence, making the animals. At one point God decided- "Let there be people!" God said He would make them like His own kind. So God made a man. God named the man Adam. After a while, God decided to make a woman, so the species of humans can continue to spread. He took a part from Adam's rib and created a woman. Her name was Eve. They lived in the beautiful garden of Eden. Once both were created, Adam and Eve lived in peace and fed off the fruits from the trees. But there was one tree they couldn't eat from. It was the tree of Good and Evil. It was located in the center of Eden. God told Adam and Eve to not eat from it so they don't die. And one day, as Eve was roaming around the Satan, Enemy of God, disguised himself as a snake and came to Eve " Is it true you cannot eat from all the trees in Eden?" Eve replied "We can eat from all the trees except from the tree in the middle of Eden, so we don't die." So the snake said " No, God knows that if you eat from this tree you will become like gods, who know Good and Evil." After the tricky words of the Satan, Eve looked at the tree and ripped two fruits from it, one for her and one for Adam. When both of them ate the fruits, they became guilty and hid in the forest. When God found them He asked " Why did you eat from the tree?" Adam replied " My wife gave it to me." So God asked Eve " Why did you eat from the tree?" Eve replied " The snake said I would know good and Evil." God punished both Adam and Eve by banishing them from Eden. They were the first punished by God. The three ways God punished dam and Eve - 1. They became mortal 2. They would work to get their reources 3. Humans would have pain during labor. Later they died both spiritual and physical death. Spiritual means that they lose the connection with God. But Adam and Eve had kids who also live their lives.
