Original sin

this might be a debatable topic, however the blame for the Original Sin points to Eve as the source of evil. Since this is not only one of the most significant pieces of the scripture texts for Judaism and Christianity, it is challenging to argue against the real cause and source of evil and the Original Sin. It is interesting to note that “The Mirror of the Sinful Soul” states “You wipe away her transgressions, for she has nothing but sins, / given her by her Adam, her progenitor.” This to an…

HOLY which is applied in the concept of time not to space. We can see a higher order of creation represented by each day of creation with humankind at the top of the chain of command. God speaks worlds into existence, and step by step we see the original good and right use of power. God does it in order of creation. We can see the omnipotence of God from these creations. He did the following in Genesis 1. The first…

limitations of knowledge and the sin that comes from it. Chance was Prophet Adam who never took the bite of the apple and thus, never had to leave the garden of Eden. Chance was also not successfully tempted or seduced from Eve. After Ben’s death, it was clearly stated in the film, that Eve was going to stay on the estate, and was implied that Chance would as well. The estate would be their protected space and can be interpreted as Paradise. Without original sin, Adam and Eve would never have…

Lost to the original story there are clear indicators of the liberties Milton took with Eve’s character. For starters Eve is considered a simpler character from Adam. She is created from Adam 's rib as his helper and partner. Nonetheless that is not considered the best role to portray Eve’s positive qualities from a feminist point of view. As stated by Chikako Tanimoto essay Milton’s Eve in Paradise Lost “By implying Eve 's inferiority to Adam this passage contrary to God 's original…

In his essay “The Bipartite System of Laws in Paradise Lost" Eric Dunnum argues that in John Milton’s Paradise Lost, man’s fall can be attributed to a system, set by God, that reflects that which is also used by historical kings and governments of the world. This system is a set of laws that is, as the title suggests, bipartite, which means that it is composed of two separate entities that come together to form a whole, and Dunnum’s argument often relies on the works of Louis Althusser to expand…

What are human beings made of? Like it says in Genesis 2:7 The Lord God formed a man from the dust of the earth and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.” I believe that the soul and the spirit are in the a way similar but also different, I feel like the body is separate from the soul and the spirit because we can control our body and we cannot really control our spirit. I believe that the spirit and soul are similar in a way because they both are what…

For Adam and Eve, knowledge is the root of their sin problem; if it was not for knowledge, the Fall would not have happened. Their ignorance is what allowed them to live in perfection in a sinless place for as long as they did. They had no worries; they just had to maintain a routine of their everyday…

claims that “Man / thy creature late so loved, Thy youngest son / fall circumvented thus by fraud, though joined / with his own folly” is “far be from Thee, Father.” Even God’s own son questions the moral standing of free will and how it can lead to sin if it continues with no intervention. Jesus also becomes the centerpiece in the debate of if free will is truly free if God has foreknowledge of everything. An example of this is when Jesus volunteers himself to become mortal in order to…

troubling to Adam and Eve, and they wonder when and how life will be taken from them. Adam is told by Michael the various ways in which death will come to Adam, Eve, and their progeny, and the description is so terrible as to cause Adam tears. The two original parents have introduced death into the world for generations to come. Ironically, however, while Adam's judgment…

That is how the devil made his way into the Garden of Eden. Eve ended up eating the fruit from the forbidden tree. In turn, Eve offered Adam to eat of the same fruit, the fruit from the tree of good and evil, which he did eat and thus the origin of sin…
