Summary | "The First Book of Adam and Eve" by Rutherford Hayes Platt is a retelling of the story of Adam and Eve after their expulsion from the Garden of Eden, likely written in the late 19th century. The text serves as a fictional account that explores the trials, tribulations, and emotional struggles faced by the first humans, focusing on their reflections on the lost paradise and interactions with divine beings. The narrative particularly emphasizes themes of sin, redemption, and the profound yearning for forgiveness. The opening of the book sets the stage by detailing Adam and Eve's immediate reactions to their exile from the garden. They descend into a cave called the Cave of Treasures, overwhelmed by grief and remorse as they confront their new reality. Adam mourns the loss of the garden's beauty while Eve takes on the burden of guilt for their transgression, pleading with God for mercy. Throughout these chapters, the couple grapples with despair, engages in prayer for forgiveness, and experiences encounters with God and adversaries, including Satan, emphasizing the continuous tension between hope and despair in their new lives.
