"… as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtility ..."
                            II Corinthians 11:3
Untold Adam and Eve -
The Garden
























                      What really happened at the garden?


Another common story: Adam and Eve were created and placed in the
Garden of Eden. The only command they are given was not to eat the fruit
of one tree. Eve meets a serpent, and it convinces her to eat the fruit. This
causes God to punish them, and banish them both, out from paradise,
forever.

In probably one of the most popular stories in history, we are again led by
what we have always assumed. As in the previous
Gap Theory of
Creation, we are reading from verses which were originally written in
Hebrew. The people who translated this part of Genesis, as well, probably
were taught the same story you and I were. They probably used the
corresponding English words in their translation which best fit their
assumption of this story. As we look into the original Hebrew, however, as
well as other related ancient texts, we may begin to see a whole different
story. What if there was more to this whole story of "a fruit?" Could there
have been some other parts left out?

Often, there are obscure details of the Biblical narrative that were not
explained, for whatever reason. There may just have been something so
dramatic left out of this story that it almost isn't fathomable.


















First off, the serpent speaks. As a child, I always wondered why Eve
wasn't more surprised that an animal decided to go and talk to her. Upon
years of research, I think I found out why. The serpent, at least in the past,
wasn't the same type of creature we know of today; it wasn't an animal, it
was a humanoid person. Actually, there is a great deal of other evidence
which suggests this serpent was, in reality, a serpentine, or serpent-like
angel who had fallen from grace. As mentioned in the section Giants of
Scripture, there were angels also fashioned around the creation of Adam.
We get a hint to this in the Bible:


"
And again, when He (God) bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world,
He saith, And let all the angels of God worship him
.".

                    Hebrews 1:6 KJV


When they discovered how much preferential treatment God had given the
man Adam, they went and complained about him. We also get a hint to the
conversation of these angels to God, in regards to their dissatisfaction of
Adam:


Psalms (KJV)
8:4 "
What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that
thou visitest him
?
8:5
For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and has
crowned him with glory and honor
.
8:6
Thou madest him to have dominion of the works of thy hands..."


At least two groups of angels may have been punished for their
disobedience around the time of Adam, and cast down to earth (with Satan
possibly also among them). Ancient written evidence shows there could
have been more humans than just Adam and Eve on the earth at the time
of his formation. They, as well as these fallen angels, were used in the
tasks of working the fields of the garden, and domesticating the animals.
We can see more of this in
'Birds' and 'Beasts'.

There was a huge garden, along with creation, that God wanted a man to
work and maintain. This, of course, was the Garden of Eden. Adam was
created to keep and head the maintenance (Genesis 2:5, 7-8). One ancient
source,
The Book of the Cave of Treasures, stated that, "in it (the Garden
of Eden) dwelt the souls of the righteous. The souls of sinners dwelt in a
deep place, outside Eden
." The fallen angels may have been placed outside
the garden, and assigned various roles of leadership to the other human
workers of the day. All of them, even the fallen angels, were under the
authority of Adam.

Since their fall, angels, complete with the same hands, feet, and an overall
body as a man, were placed under subjection of the very same man they
complained about. They were assigned to live on earth, just like men, with
only a few differences. They may have maintained their over-all "shining"
appearance, much like you would picture an angel to have. They, as well,
maintained "serpent-like" facial features: high cheekbones, a different look
to their eyes, etc. That was what some of the more powerful angels of the
ancient world, traditionally, may have looked like.














Satan, as mentioned before, could have also complained to God around the
time as these other angels. Since Satan was composed of purely spirit,
unlike the other angels who were fashioned of spirit and earthly elements,
his fall may have been a little different. The other angels, closer to man in
formation, were given the rest of the elements of the earth (such as flesh
and blood), which allowed them to live and walk like a man. Satan, a
heavenly angel, did not fall in this way. He had to find a body to possess,
for example, to be able to act like other human beings.

According to a variety of ancient sources, Satan convinced a serpentine-like
angel of Eden to try and seduce Eve, and make her disobey the one and
only rule they had: not to eat the forbidden fruit. This was to get out from
under the control of Adam:


"
... (Satan) told the serpent, 'I hear that you are wiser (than all the other
animals (i.e. people?))... for Adam gives food to all the animals, thus also
to you. When then all the animals come to bow down before Adam... you
also come to bow down. You were created before him... and you bow
down before this little one! And why do you eat (food) inferior to Adam's
and his spouse's and not the food of paradise? But come and harken to
me so that we may have Adam expelled from the wall of paradise just as
we are on the outside... Be a sheath for me and I will speak to the woman
through your mouth a word by which we will trick them
.'"

                 The Book of Adam (44) 16.3a - 16.4


Satan was allowed to possess the serpent, to do his bidding. He could have
also convinced the serpent to work with him to get one more thing: the
promise of one of the richest and most luscious pieces of "fruit" in the
garden:
Eve herself.

Satan knew the serpent was now flesh and blood, and had human thoughts
and emotions. There may have been a curiosity about the sexual experience
inside this humanoid along with anyone else. Satan, via the serpent,
whispered his lies to Eve, and caused her to believe what he was saying.
Even though she did not want to eat the fruit, the serpent, with his
physical, human attributes, and charm, may have had something else in
store for her.

There may have been one more occurrence that took place along with his
subtle words, another element of seduction was used to win over Eve -

sexual
seduction! As one ancient source stated, the serpent was inflamed
by Eve: which means she was made
red or embarrassed through sexual
desire. The Bible also states the serpent
beguiled Eve (Genesis 3:13). This
word "
beguile" is a term which simply means, in modern terminology, to
be "screwed over", or wholly seduced. Did the serpent seduce Eve first,
with literal, sexual beguilement, and then "screwed over" her world, by
convincing her, in this passionate state, to eat the forbidden fruit? If this
happened, as a result, the same sexual seduction used on Eve may have
been used by Eve to seduce her man Adam. After they both succumbed to
this temptation, and then ate the actual fruit of the forbidden Tree of
Knowledge, the world became defiled. The fall began.
























This idea is not new. In fact, there is a lot of ancient evidence which
supports the claim of fornication, as well as verbal seduction, inside the
Garden of Eden. This may lead us to something more: just
what was the
name of this serpent, and what was the
result of their fornication, if any?

The answer to the first question seems to be the fallen angel named Azazel
(or Nachash). This angel was thought to be a "
winged serpent", which was
also where the future images of a "
fiery serpent" or "dragon" could have
originated. Azazel, at one time, was "
the strong one of God". Now, he was
reduced to an ordinary overseer of an earthly garden. Azazel, incidentally,
was described, "
as being like a serpent in appearance, having hands and
feet like a man, with... wings
."

What about their affair? Any result? There are a variety of sources, even
the Bible, which may possibly point to an actual offspring of this sexual
contact. In Genesis Three, some of God's punishments to Eve revolve
around childbirth. This could be directly resulted to the act they just
committed.

The Bible states Adam and Eve were now ashamed, and rushed to cover
their
private parts with fig leaves (Genesis 3:7). Why cover them? Was it
something that they did? For more on their possible offspring, see
Cain,
Seed of the Serpent. There is much more about this in my upcoming book,
as well.
