1 Kaj la serpento estis pli ruza, ol cxiuj kampaj bestoj, kiujn kreis Dio la Eternulo. Kaj gxi diris al la virino: CXu Dio diris, ke vi ne mangxu de cxiuj arboj de la gxardeno?

2 Kaj la virino diris al la serpento: La fruktojn de la arboj de la gxardeno ni povas mangxi;

3 sed pri la fruktoj de la arbo, kiu estas en la mezo de la gxardeno, Dio diris: Ne mangxu ion de ili kaj ne tusxu ilin, por ke vi ne mortu.

4 Kaj la serpento diris al la virino: Ne, vi ne mortos;

5 sed Dio scias, ke en la tago, en kiu vi mangxos ion de ili, malfermigxos viaj okuloj kaj vi estos kiel Dio, vi scios bonon kaj malbonon.

6 Kaj la virino vidis, ke la arbo estas bona por mangxi kaj gxi estas cxarma por la okuloj, kaj la arbo estas dezirinda por sagxigxi; kaj sxi prenis de gxiaj fruktoj, kaj sxi mangxis, kaj sxi donis kune ankaux al sia edzo, kaj li mangxis.

7 Kaj malfermigxis la okuloj de ili ambaux, kaj ili sciigxis, ke ili estas nudaj; kaj ili kunkudris foliojn de figarbo kaj faris al si zonajxojn.

8 Kaj ili auxdis la vocxon de Dio la Eternulo, kiu marsxis en la gxardeno dum la malvarmeto de la tago; kaj Adam kaj lia edzino kasxigxis de Dio la Eternulo inter la arboj de la gxardeno.

9 Kaj Dio la Eternulo vokis Adamon, kaj diris al li: Kie vi estas?

10 Kaj tiu diris: Vian vocxon mi auxdis en la gxardeno, kaj mi ektimis, cxar mi estas nuda; kaj mi kasxis min.

11 Kaj Dio diris: Kiu diris al vi, ke vi estas nuda? cxu vi ne mangxis de la arbo, pri kiu Mi ordonis al vi, ke vi ne mangxu de gxi?

12 Kaj Adam diris: La edzino, kiun Vi donis al mi kiel kunulinon, sxi donis al mi de la arbo, kaj mi mangxis.

13 Kaj Dio la Eternulo diris al la virino: Kial vi tion faris? Kaj la virino diris: La serpento tromplogis min, kaj mi mangxis.

14 Kaj Dio la Eternulo diris al la serpento: CXar vi tion faris, tial estu malbenita inter cxiuj brutoj kaj inter cxiuj bestoj de la kampo; sur via ventro vi irados kaj teron vi mangxados dum via tuta vivo.

15 Kaj Mi metos malamikecon inter vi kaj la virino kaj inter via idaro kaj sxia idaro; gxi frapados vian kapon, kaj vi pikados gxian kalkanon.

16 Al la virino Li diris: Mi multigos viajn suferojn dum via gravedeco; en doloro vi naskados infanojn; kaj al via viro vi vin tiros, kaj li regos super vi.

17 Kaj al Adam Li diris: CXar vi obeis la vocxon de via edzino, kaj vi mangxis de la arbo, pri kiu Mi ordonis al vi, dirante, ke vi ne mangxu de gxi, tial malbenita estu la tero pro vi; kun suferoj vi mangxados de gxi dum via tuta vivo.

18 Kaj dornojn kaj pikajxojn gxi kreskigos por vi, kaj vi mangxados herbojn de la kampo.

19 En la sxvito de via vizagxo vi mangxados panon, gxis vi revenos en la teron, el kiu vi estas prenita; cxar vi estas polvo kaj refarigxos polvo.

20 Kaj Adam donis al sia edzino la nomon Eva, cxar sxi estis patrino de cxiuj vivantoj.

21 Kaj Dio la Eternulo faris por Adam kaj por lia edzino vestojn el felo, kaj Li vestis ilin.

22 Kaj Dio la Eternulo diris: Jen Adam farigxis kiel unu el Ni, sciante bonon kaj malbonon; nun eble li etendos sian manon kaj prenos ankaux de la arbo de vivo kaj mangxos kaj vivos eterne.

23 Kaj Dio la Eternulo eligis lin el la Edena gxardeno, por ke li prilaboradu la teron, el kiu li estis prenita.

24 Kaj Li elpelis Adamon, kaj lokis antaux la Edena gxardeno la kerubon kaj la turnigxantan flaman glavon, por gardi la vojon al la arbo de vivo.

8891. For in six days Jehovah made heaven and earth and the sea. That this signifies the regeneration and vivification of those things which are in the internal and in the external man, is evident from the signification of “six days,” as being states of combat (of which (8888) just above, n. 8888), and when predicated of Jehovah, that is, the Lord, they signify His labor with man before he is regenerated (n. 8510); and from the signification of “heaven and earth,” as being the church or kingdom of the Lord in man, “heaven” in the internal man, and “earth” in the external man (n. 82, 1411, 1733, 1850, 2117, 2118, 3355, 4535), thus the regenerate man, that is, one who has found the new life and has thus been made alive; and from the signification of “the sea,” as being the sensuous of man adhering to the corporeal (n. 8872).

[2] In this verse the subject treated of is the hallowing of the seventh day, or the institution of the Sabbath, and it is described by the words, “In six days Jehovah made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested in the seventh day; wherefore Jehovah blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it.” They who do not think beyond the sense of the letter cannot believe otherwise than that the creation which is described in the first and second chapters of Genesis, is the creation of the universe, and that there were six days within which were created the heaven, the earth, the sea and all things which are therein, and finally man in the likeness of God. But who that takes into consideration the particulars of the description cannot see that the creation of the universe is not there meant; for such things are there described as may be known from common sense not to have been so; as that there were days before the sun and the moon, as well as light and darkness, and that herbage and trees sprang up; and yet that the light was furnished by these luminaries, and a distinction was made between the light and the darkness, and thus days were made.

[3] In what follows in the history there are also like things, which are hardly acknowledged to be possible by anyone who thinks interiorly, as that the woman was built from the rib of the man; also that two trees were set in paradise, of the fruit of one of which it was forbidden to eat; and that a serpent from one of them spoke with the wife of the man who had been the wisest of mortal creatures, and by his speech, which was from the mouth of the serpent, deceived them both; and that the whole human race, composed of so many millions, was in consequence condemned to hell. The moment that these and other such things in that history are thought of, they must needs appear paradoxical to those who entertain any doubt concerning the holiness of the Word, and must afterward lead them to deny the Divine therein. Nevertheless be it known that each and all things in that history, down to the smallest iota, are Divine, and contain within them arcana which before the angels in the heavens are plain as in clear day. The reason of this is that the angels do not see the sense of the Word according to the letter, but according to what is within, namely, what is spiritual and celestial, and within these, things Divine. When the first chapter of Genesis is read, the angels do not perceive any other creation than the new creation of man, which is called regeneration. This regeneration is described in that history; by paradise the wisdom of the man who has been created anew; by the two trees in the midst thereof, the two faculties of that man, namely, the will of good by the tree of life, and the understanding of truth by the tree of knowledge. And that it was forbidden to eat of this latter tree, was because the man who is regenerated, or created anew, must no longer be led by the understanding of truth, but by the will of good, and if otherwise, the new life within him perishes (see n. 202, 337, 2454, 2715, 3246, 3652, 4448, 5895, 5897, 7877, 7923, 7992, 8505, 8506, 8510, 8512, 8516, 8539, 8643, 8648, 8658, 8690, 8701, 8722). Consequently by Adam, or man, and by Eve his wife, was there meant a new church, and by the eating of the tree of knowledge, the fall of that church from good to truth, consequently from love to the Lord and toward the neighbor to faith without these loves, and this by reasoning from their own intellectual, which reasoning is the serpent (see n. 195-197, 6398, 6399, 6949, 7293).

[4] From all this it is evident that the historic narrative of the creation and the first man, and of paradise, is a history so framed as to contain within it heavenly and Divine things, and this according to the received method in the Ancient Churches. This method of writing extended thence also to many who were outside of that Church, who in like manner devised histories and wrapped up arcana within them, as is plain from the writers of the most ancient times. For in the Ancient Churches it was known what such things as are in the world signified in heaven, nor to those people were events of so much importance as to be described; but the things which were of heaven. These latter things occupied their minds, for the reason that they thought more interiorly than men at this day, and thus had communication with angels, and therefore it was delightful to them to connect such things together. But they were led by the Lord to those things which should be held sacred in the churches, consequently such things were composed as were in full correspondence.

[5] From all this it can be seen what is meant by “heaven and earth” in the first verse of the first chapter of Genesis, namely, the church internal and external. That these are signified by “heaven and earth” is evident also from passages in the prophets, where mention is made of “a new heaven and a new earth,” by which a new church is meant (see n. 82, 1411, 1733, 1850, 2117, 2118, 3355, 4535). From all this it is now plain that by, “In six days Jehovah made heaven and earth and the sea,” is signified the regeneration and vivification of those things which are in the internal and in the external man.
