Rutherford Hayes Platt

In this imaginative retelling of one of humanity's most foundational stories, Rutherford Hayes Platt brings to life the tale of Adam and Eve-two figures who have come to symbolize the beginning of human existence, the complexities of innocence, and the heavy burden of knowledge. Set in the fabled Garden of Eden, their journey unfolds through temptation, disobedience, and the tragic consequences of their actions. Platt masterfully reimagines this ancient narrative, exploring not only the external journey but also the internal struggles, emotions, and spiritual dilemmas faced by these iconic characters. Drawing on biblical texts and apocryphal sources, this version provides readers with a fresh perspective on the ancient tale, offering a deeper exploration of Adam and Eve's emotional landscapes. As they move from innocence to knowledge, readers are taken on a transformative journey that examines the moral complexities of the human condition. The couple's fall from grace and subsequent banishment from Eden is depicted with striking emotional depth, shedding light on universal themes of guilt, regret, and redemption. What makes this retelling so powerful is not just its vivid imagery and timeless appeal but its ability to resonate with readers on a deeply personal level. Platt brings these ancient figures to life in a way that speaks to modern sensibilities while preserving the profound theological insights of the original narrative. Whether for those who are drawn to biblical stories or readers interested in exploring the depths of human nature, this work stands as a thought-provoking and insightful meditation on the beginning of humanity's spiritual journey.

PRESENT day controversy that rages around the authenticity of the Scriptures and how human life began on this planet must pause to consider the Adam and Eve story. Where does it come from? What does it mean? The familiar version in Genesis is not the source of this fundamental legend, it is not a spontaneous, Heaven-born account that sprang into place in the Old Testament. It is simply a version, unexcelled perhaps, but a version of a myth or belief or account handed down by word of mouth from generation to generation of mankind-through the incoherent, unrecorded ages of man it came--like an inextinguishable ray of light that ties the time when human life began, with the time when the human mind could express itself and the human hand could write. The First Book of Adam and Eve details the life and times of Adam and Eve after they were expelled from the garden to the time that Cain kills his brother Abel. It tells of Adam and Eve's first dwelling-the Cave of Treasures; their trials and temptations; Satan's many apparitions to them; the birth of Cain, Abel, and their twin sisters; and Cain's love for his beautiful twin sister, Luluwa, whom Adam and Eve wished to join to Abel. This book is considered by many scholars to be part of the "Pseudepigrapha" (soo-duh-pig-ruh-fuh). The "Pseudepigrapha" is a collection of historical biblical works that are considered to befiction. Because of that stigma, this book was not included in the compilation of the Holy Bible. This book is a written history of what happened in the days of Adam and Eve after they were cast out of the garden. Although considered to be pseudepigraphic by some, it carriessignificant meaning and insight into events of that time. It is doubtful that these writings could have survived all the many centuries if there were no substance to them. This book is simply a version of an account handed down by word of mouth, from generation to generation, linking the time that the first human life was created to the time when somebody finally decided to write it down. This particular version is the work of unknown Egyptians. The lack of historical allusion makes it difficult to precisely date the writing, however, using other pseudepigraphical works as a reference, it was probably written a few hundred yearsbefore the birth of Christ. Parts of this version are found in the Jewish Talmud, and the Islamic Koran, showing what a vital role it played in the original literature of human wisdom. The Egyptian author wrote in Arabic, but later translations were found written in Ethiopic. The present English translation was translated in the late 1800's by Dr. S. C. Malan and Dr. E. Trumpp. They translated into King James English from both the Arabic version and the Ethiopic version which was then published in The Forgotten Books of Eden in 1927 by The WorldPublishing Company. In 1995, the text was extracted from a copy of The Forgotten Books of Eden and converted to electronic form by Dennis Hawkins. It was then translated into more modern English by simply exchanging 'Thou' s for 'You's, 'Art's for 'Are's, and so forth. Thetext was then carefully re-read to ensure its integrity.
