The First Book of Adam and Eve · Restored Names Edition · first paragraph

1But when Adam heard these words from Satan, he sorrowed much, because of his oath and of his promise, and said, "Shall I commit adultery with my flesh and my bones, and shall I sin against myself, for Elohim (God) to destroy me, and to blot me out from off the face of the earth?

2Since, when at first, I ate of the tree, He drove me out of the garden into this strange land, and deprived me of my bright nature, and brought death over me. If, then, I should do this, He will cut off my life from the earth, and He will cast me into hell, and will plague me there a long time.

That is the first paragraph of The First Book of Adam and Eve 71
