The Old Testament

God creates the heavens and the earth and everything that lives. He creates human beings in his image and likeness and places them as caretakers over the earth.

God forms man from the ground and places him the garden in Eden. He commands him to fast from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. God makes woman from Adam's side to be his helper. 

The serpent deceives the woman and her and Adam eat from the forbidden tree. Then the ground is cursed and God expels Adam and Eve out of the garden. 

Eve's sons Cain and Abel make offerings to the Lord but only Abel's was acceptable. Out of envy, Cain kills his brother Abel. Abel's blood cries out from the ground and God sends Cain away.
