Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
Dr. Solomon Caesar Malan translates the extracanonical stories
describing Adam and Eve following their expulsion from the Garden
of Eden. Having lain in a cave in northeast Africa for centuries
prior to their discovery, the stories are intended to clarify what
became of the first ever man and woman after they succumbed to
temptation. Although not considered canon, they have received
interest by Biblical scholars who have translated the original
Ge'ez into various European languages. We hear the stories of Adam
and Eve as they navigate the wilderness and eventually settle down
to form a family. Their initial departure is marred by Eve fainting
in shock at the landscape before them: God, however, offers
encouragement and the pair are able to venture forth into the great
unknown. An intriguing supplement to the Book of Genesis, The First
and Second Books of Adam and Eve remains a text of some interest to
Biblical scholars and adherents of Christianity.
