The first rule from god is that Adam and Eve shall not eat the fruit and neither shall they touch it. And after Adam and Eve were seduced into tasting the forbidden fruit, the God gave each of them different penalty and drove them out of Eden. This plot first exemplifies that transgression, contrary to the will of god, will result in punishment. The moral of the four stories in Genesis is that the volition of human, without the direction of god, will result in sins and catastrophic chaos. By counterposing the will of god, which corresponds to the good, and the free will of human, which corresponds to the evil, the author is attaching absolute authority to the unattainable position of god, who is above us all; the ultimate and legitimate goal of human should be being loyal to the Lord and salvage themselves from sins.

The lord instructs Moses to lead and “bring forth my people the children of Israel out of Egypt,” so that they will no longer be enslaved and persecuted. Chapter 20 to 30 documents all the laws God expressed to Moses and in these chapters,
