The dust jacket says the text is based on the King James version of the Bible. It starts at the beginning, but after God creates the sun, moon, and stars, the Lord God forms man and puts him in the Garden of Eden. Adam names the animals there and the Lord God then makes Eve.for no particular reason. The man and woman, called his wife, are shown naked together with some animals. The serpent tempts the woman, we see her eating a multicolored fruit, while her husband looks at the fruit with a puzzled expression. The Lord God looks for Adam, who, along with his wife explain what happened. God says how he will punish them. Adam names his wife Eve and they are banished.
In other words, the story is pretty much what is in the Bible except for the last few days of creation in the first chapter. But this means the first creation of Adam as made in God's image, male and female, is missing, along with the blessings and saying that any part of creation is good. ( )
