In Genesis 3: 1-24, it is implied that the first sin was caused by temptation. The devil, or Satan, made himself appear as a serpent in the Garden of Eden; he informed Eve that the only reason why God did not want both her and Adam to eat from the tree with the forbidden fruit was because the fruit contained knowledge that only God had at the time. This portion of the bible expresses sin as any act that defies God’s command; God has certain expectations and rules for us that he provides us with…

The story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden is one of the oldest and best known in the West. The power that this story has comes not just from the Bible, but also from its depiction of evil, of people 's impulses, and of its presentiation of temptation.

In Paradise Lost, John Milton writes an epic that tells the ever captivating tale of good versus evil from where he believes is the beginning, the Garden of Eden. To do this however, Milton first lays out what had transpired before God’s creation of the Earth or of Adam and Eve to the fall of Satan and the angles who chose to follow him.

Adam bemoans how they “might have lived and joyed immortal bliss/Yet willing chose rather death,” (IX.1166-1167) and this fact is quickly confirmed by Jesus. Jesus judges Adam and tells him he will “return unto the ground for thou/Out of the ground wast taken. Know thy birth,/For dust thou art and shalt…

In Paradise Lost Book 9 Milton deliberately imposes his own views on women to his readers with his own portrayal of Eve. Milton 's poem extols that Eve 's positive traits are her beauty, submissiveness, her softness, sweetness and her so called inadequacy to man (Adam).

All of this comes from Milton; he simply follows the thought of his…
