1 Had pak byl nejchytřejší ze všech živočichů polních, kteréž byl učinil Hospodin Bůh. A ten řekl ženě: Tak-liž jest, že vám Bůh řekl: Nebudete jísti z každého stromu rajského?

2 I řekla žena hadu: Ovoce stromů rajských jíme;

3 Ale o ovoci stromu, kterýž jest u prostřed ráje, řekl Bůh: Nebudete ho jísti, aniž se ho dotknete, abyste nezemřeli.

4 I řekl had ženě: Nikoli nezemřete smrtí!

5 Ale Bůh, že v kterýkoli den z něho jísti budete, otevrou se oči vaše; a budete jako bohové, vědouce dobré i zlé.

6 Viduci tedy žena, že dobrý jest strom k jídlu i příjemný očima, a k nabytí rozumnosti strom žádostivý, vzala z ovoce jeho a jedla; dala také i muži svému s sebou, a on jedl.

7 Tedy otevříny jsou oči obou dvou, a poznali, že jsou nazí; i navázali lístí fíkového a nadělali sobě věníků.

8 A v tom uslyšeli hlas Hospodina Boha chodícího po ráji k větru dennímu; i skryl se Adam a žena jeho před tváří Hospodina Boha, u prostřed stromoví rajského.

9 I povolal Hospodin Bůh Adama, a řekl jemu: Kdež jsi?

10 Kterýžto řekl: Hlas tvůj slyšel jsem v ráji a bál jsem se, že jsem nahý; protož skryl jsem se.

11 I řekl Bůh: Kdožť oznámil, že jsi nahý? Nejedl-lis ale z toho stromu, z něhožť jsem jísti zapověděl?

12 I řekl Adam: Žena, kterouž jsi mi dal, aby byla se mnou, ona mi dala z stromu toho, a jedl jsem.

13 I řekl Hospodin Bůh ženě: Což jsi to učinila? I řekla žena: Had mne podvedl, i jedla jsem.

14 Tedy řekl Hospodin Bůh hadu: Že jsi to učinil, zlořečený budeš nade všecka hovada a nade všecky živočichy polní; po břiše svém plaziti se budeš, a prach žráti budeš po všecky dny života svého.

15 Nad to, nepřátelství položím mezi tebou a mezi ženou, i mezi semenem tvým a semenem jejím; ono potře tobě hlavu, a ty potřeš jemu patu.

16 Ženě pak řekl: Velice rozmnožím bolesti tvé a počínání tvá, s bolestí roditi budeš děti, a pod mocí muže tvého bude žádost tvá, a on panovati bude nad tebou.

17 Adamovi také řekl: Že jsi uposlechl hlasu ženy své, a jedl jsi z stromu toho, kterýžť jsem zapověděl, řka: Nebudeš jísti z něho; zlořečená země pro tebe, s bolestí jísti budeš z ní po všecky dny života svého.

18 Trní a bodláčí tobě ploditi bude, i budeš jísti byliny polní.

19 V potu tváři své chléb jísti budeš, dokavadž se nenavrátíš do země, poněvadž jsi z ní vzat. Nebo prach jsi a v prach se navrátíš.

20 Dal pak byl Adam jméno ženě své Eva, proto že ona byla mátě všech živých.

21 I zdělal Hospodin Bůh Adamovi a ženě jeho oděv kožený, a přioděl je.

22 Tedy řekl Hospodin Bůh: Aj, člověk učiněn jest jako jeden z nás, věda dobré i zlé; pročež nyní, aby nevztáhl ruky své, a nevzal také z stromu života, a jedl by, i byl by živ na věky, vyžeňme jej.

23 I vypustil jej Hospodin Bůh z zahrady Eden, aby dělal zemi, z níž vzat byl.

24 A tak vyhnal člověka a osadil zahradu Eden cherubíny k východní straně s mečem plamenným blýskajícím se, aby ostříhali cesty k stromu života.

4687. 'And behold, my sheaf arose and also stood up' means teaching concerning the Lord's Divine Human. This is clear from the meaning of 'a sheaf' as doctrinal teaching, dealt with immediately above; and from the meaning of 'arising and standing up' as that which is the highest and is going to reign and which they are going to worship. The highest object of worship is the Lord's Divine Human, as is evident from the descriptions which follow: The eleven sheaves bowed down to that sheaf, and in the second dream the sun, moon, and eleven stars bowed down to Joseph (meaning that which is highest and is going to reign and which they are going to worship), on account of which dreams Jacob says, 'Are we indeed to come - I and your mother, and your brothers - to bow down to you to the earth?' The Lord's Divine Truth is that which is represented by 'Joseph', as stated above, the highest aspect of it being the Lord Himself, and the highest among matters of doctrine being that His Human is Divine.

[2] So far as this highest matter of doctrine is concerned, the Most Ancient Church, which was celestial and was called Man more so than all others, worshipped the Infinite Being (Esse) and the Infinite Manifestation (Existens) of that Being. And because they could not have any perception of an Infinite Being, yet could have - from what they could perceive in their internal man, what they could experience with their senses in their external man, and what was visible to them in the world - some perception of the Infinite Manifestation of the Infinite Being, they therefore worshipped the Infinite Manifestation which held the Infinite Being within it. That Infinite Manifestation holding the Infinite Being within it they perceived as a Divine Man. They did so because they knew that the Infinite Manifestation was brought forth from the Infinite Being by means of heaven. And because heaven is the Grand Man corresponding to every single part of the human being - as has been shown at the ends of chapters before this one and will be shown at the ends of several more coming after it they were unable to have through perception any other conception of the Infinite Manifestation of an Infinite Being than that of a Divine Man. For whatever passes from the Infinite Being by way of heaven as the Grand Man presents an image of that Being in every single thing. When that celestial Church started to fall they foresaw that that Infinite Manifestation could not continue any longer to come into people's minds and that this being so the human race would perish. For this reason they received by revelation the knowledge that One was to be born who would make Divine the Human within Himself and in this way an Infinite Manifestation like that which had existed previously would come about, and would at length be one with the Infinite Being as this had also been previously. From this arose their prophecy concerning the Lord contained in Genesis 3:15.

[3] This whole matter is described in John as follows,

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him, and without Him was not anything made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us; and we beheld His glory as of the Only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth. John 1:1-4, 14.

'The Word' is Divine Truth which in its Essence is the Infinite Manifestation of the Infinite Being, and is the Human of the Lord Himself. This Human is the source from which Divine truth now proceeds and flows into heaven, and through heaven into the minds of men. Consequently this Human rules and governs everything, even as it has done so from eternity; for it is one and the same with the Infinite being by virtue of His joining the Human to the Divine, which He effected by making even the Human within Him Divine. From this it may now be seen that the highest aspect of Divine truth is the Lord's Divine Human, and from this that the Church's highest matter of doctrine is that His Human is Divine.
