After the loss of innocence, God curses Adam and the earth as punishment for his disobedience. Adam and humanity is cursed to die and return to the earth (or ground) from which he was formed.{{sfn|Hendel|2000|p=119}} This "earthly" aspect is a component of Adam's identity, and Adam's curse of estrangement from the earth seems to describe humankind's divided nature of being earthly yet separated from nature.{{sfn|Hendel|2000|p=119}} God himself who took of the dust from all four corners of the earth with each color (red, black, white, and green) then created Adam therewith,{{sfn|Ginzberg|1909|loc=vol I, chapter II}} where the soul of Adam is the image of God.[2] In the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament){{Main article|Genesis creation narrative}}Genesis 1 tells of God's creation of the world and its creatures, with humankind as the last of his creatures: "Male and female created He them, and blessed them, and called their name Adam ..." ({{Bibleverse|Genesis|5:2|HE}}). God blesses mankind, commands them to "be fruitful and multiply", and gives them "dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth" ({{Bibleverse|Genesis|1.26-27|KJV}}). In {{Bibleverse|Genesis|2|HE}}, God forms "Adam", this time meaning a single male human, out of "the dust of the ground" and "breathed into his nostrils the breath of life" ({{Bibleverse|Genesis|2:7|KJV}}). God then places this first man in the Garden of Eden, telling him that "Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die" ({{Bibleverse|Genesis|2:16-17|KJV}}). God notes that "It is not good that the man should be alone" ({{Bibleverse|Genesis|2:18|KJV}}) and brings the animals to Adam, who gives them their names, but among all the animals there was not found a companion for him ({{Bibleverse|Genesis|2:20|NASB}}). God causes a deep sleep to fall upon Adam and forms a woman ({{Bibleverse|Genesis|2:21-22|KJV}}), and Adam awakes and greets her as his helpmate. {{Bibleref2|Genesis 3}}, the story of the Fall: A serpent persuades the woman to disobey God's command and eat of the tree of knowledge, which gives wisdom. Woman convinces Adam to do likewise, whereupon they become conscious of their nakedness, cover themselves, and hide from the sight of God. God questions Adam, who blames the woman. God passes judgment, first upon the serpent, condemned to go on his belly, then the woman, condemned to pain in childbirth and subordination to her husband, and finally Adam, who is condemned to labour on the earth for his food and to return to it on his death.[3] God then expels the man and woman from the garden, lest they eat of the Tree of Life and become immortal.The chiastic structure of the death oracle given to Adam in {{Bibleref2|Genesis 3:19}} forms a link between man's creation from "dust" ({{Bibleref2|Genesis 2:7}}) to the "return" of his beginnings.[4] A you return B to the ground C since (kî ) from it you were taken C' for (kî ) dust you are B' and to dust A' you will return{{Bibleref2|Genesis 4}} deals with the birth of Adam's sons Cain and Abel and the story of the first murder, followed by the birth of a third son, Seth. {{Bibleref2|Genesis 5}}, the Book of the Generations of Adam, lists the descendants of Adam from Seth to Noah with their ages at the birth of their first sons (except Adam himself, for whom his age at the birth of Seth, his third son, is given) and their ages at death (Adam lives 930 years). The chapter notes that Adam had other sons and daughters after Seth, but does not name them. Post-Biblical Jewish traditions{{Main article|Adam in rabbinic literature}}BodyAdam possessed a body of light, identical to the light created by God on the first day.{{sfn|Schwartz|2006|p=130}} According to Jewish mystical tradition the original glory of Adam can be regained through mystical contemplation of God.{{sfn|Hendel|2000|p=19}} Adam, Lilith and EveThe rabbis, puzzled by the verse of Genesis 1 which states that God created man and woman together, told that when God created Adam he also created a woman from the dust, as he had created Adam, and named her Lilith; but the two could not agree, for Adam wanted Lilith to lie under him, and Lilith insisted that Adam should lie under her, and so she fled from him, and Eve was created from Adam's rib.{{sfn|Schwartz|2006|p=218}} Her story was greatly developed, during the Middle Ages, in the tradition of Aggadic midrashim, the Zohar and Jewish mysticism. Other rabbis explained the same verse as meaning that Adam was created with two faces, male and female, or as a single hermaphrodite being, male and female joined back to back, but God saw that this made walking and conversing difficult, and so split them apart.{{sfn|Schwartz|2006|p=138}} Original sinThe serpent approached Eve rather than Adam because Adam had heard the word of God with his own ears, whereas Eve had only his report; Eve tasted the fruit and knew at once that she was doomed to death, and said to herself that it was better she trick Adam into eating so that he too would die, and not take another woman in her place.{{sfn|Schwartz|2006|p=434-435}} Adam ate the fruit unaware of what he was doing, and was filled with grief.{{sfn|Schwartz|2006|p=434-435}} When Adam blamed Eve after eating the forbidden fruit, God rebuked him that Adam as a man should not have obeyed his wife, for he is the head, not her.{{sfn|Ginzberg|1909|p=36-37}} Children of Adam and EveAdam withdrew from Eve for 130 years after their expulsion from Eden, and in this time both he and Eve had sex with demons, until at length they reunited and Eve gave birth to Seth.{{sfn|Schwartz|2006|p=218}} The 2nd-century BCE Book of Jubilees tells how Adam had a daughter, Awân, born after Cain and Abel,[5] and another daughter, Azûrâ, born after Seth[6], and they had nine other sons;[7] Cain married Awân and Seth married Azûrâ, thus accounting for their descendants. The Life of Adam and Eve and its Greek version the Apocalypse of Moses recount how Adam repented his sin in exile and was rewarded by being transported to the heavenly paradise, foreshadowing the destiny of all the righteous at the end of time.{{sfn|Hendel|2000|p=19}} Adam's death and burialThe Archangel Michael attended Adam's death, together with Eve and his son Seth, still living at that time, and he was buried together with his murdered son Abel.{{sfn|Schwartz|2006|p=445}} Because they repented, God gave Adam and Eve garments of light, and similar garments will clothe the Messiah when he comes.{{sfn|Schwartz|2006|p=437}} According to the Apocalypse of Moses, which probably originates in first-century CE Jewish literature, the altar of the Temple of Solomon was the centre of the world and the gateway to God's Garden of Eden, and it was here that Adam was both created and buried.{{sfn|Ginzberg|1998|p=125-126}} Attitude towards AdamIn the 17th-century book Kav ha-Yashar, the author warns not to talk negatively about Adam, and writes that those who talk positively about Adam will be blessed with a long life.[8] A similar warning can be found in The Zohar.[9] Adam and the angel RazielThe Sefer Raziel HaMalakh (רזיאל המלאך) (Raziel the Angel) is a collection of esoteric writings, probably compiled and edited by the same hand, but originally not the work of one author, which according to tradition was revealed to Adam by the angel Raziel. The book cannot be shown to predate the 13th century, but may in parts date back to Late Antiquity, and like other obscure ancient texts such as the Bahir and Sefer Yetzirah, it has been extant in a number of versions. Zunz ("G. V." 2d ed., p. 176) distinguishes three main parts: (1) the Book Ha-Malbush; (2) the Great Raziel; (3) the Book of Secrets, or the Book of Noah. These three parts are still distinguishable—2b–7a, 7b–33b, 34a and b. After these follow two shorter parts entitled "Creation" and "Shi'ur Ḳomah", and after 41a come formulas for amulets and incantations.[10] In Christianity{{For|the Christian doctrines|fall of man|original sin}}Original sinChristianity sees human nature as irrevocably stained by the sin of Adam.{{sfn|Pies|2000|p=xviii}} The idea is not found in Judaism (nor in Islam), and was introduced by the Apostle Paul, drawing on currents in Hellenistic Jewish thought which held that Adam's sin had introduced death and sin into the world.{{sfn|Pies|2000|p=xviii}}{{sfn|Boring|2012|p=301}} Sin, for Paul, was a power to which all humans are subject, but Christ's coming held out the means by which the righteous would be restored to the Paradise from which Adam's sin had banished mankind.{{sfn|Boring|2012|p=301}}{{sfn|Hendel|2000|p=19}} He did not conceive of this original sin of Adam as being biologically transmitted or that later generations were to be punished for the deeds of a remote ancestor.{{sfn|Boring|2012|p=301}} It was Saint Augustine who took this step, locating sin itself in male semen: when Adam and Eve ate of the fruit they were ashamed and covered their genitals, identifying the place from which the first sin was passed on to all succeeding generations.{{sfn|Stortz|2001|p=93}} Only Jesus Christ, who was not conceived by human semen, was free of the stain passed down from Adam.{{sfn|Stortz|2001|pp=93—94}} (Augustine's idea was based on the ancient world's ideas on biology, according to which male sperm contained the entire unborn baby, the mother's womb being no more than a nurturing chamber in which it grew.){{sfn|Stortz|2001|p=94}} Adam's grave: Golgotha replaces Solomon's TempleAs mentioned above, the Apocalypse of Moses, a Jewish writing containing material probably originating from the first century CE, places both Adam's place of creation and his burial at the altar of the Temple of Solomon, seen as the centre of the world and the gateway to the Garden of Eden.{{sfn|Ginzberg|1998|p=125-126}} The early Christian community adapted this to their own legend of Golgotha, replacing the altar with the place of Jesus's crucifixion.{{sfn|Ginzberg|1998|p=126}} According to this Christian legend, current in the time of Origen (early 3rd century CE), the holy blood of Christ trickled down and restored to life the father of the human race, who then led the saints who appeared to many in Jerusalem on that day as described in Scripture.{{sfn|Hanauer|2011|pp=69—70}} In Islam{{Main article|Adam in Islam}}In Islam, God created Adam (Arabic: آدم) from a handful of earth taken from the entire world, which explains why the peoples of the world are of different colours.{{sfn|Wheeler|2002|pp=17—18}} He was the first prophet of Islam and the first Muslim, as the Quran says that all the prophets preached the same faith of submission to God. When God informed the angels that he would create a viceregent (a khalifa) on Earth the angels objected, saying he would spread corruption and bloodshed, but God allowed Adam to reveal the names of the beasts to the angels, saying, "I (Adam) know what you (God) reveal and what you conceal;" the scholar Al-Tabari explained that Adam was referring to the evil plans of Iblis (Satan).{{sfn|Wheeler|2002|p=15}} Adam and Eve both ate of the Tree of Immortality, and both shared guilt equally, for Eve neither tempted Adam or ate before him; nor is Eve to blame for the pain of childbirth, for God never punishes one person for the sins of another.{{sfn|Ashrof|2005|p=74}} The Shiah school of Islam does not even consider that their action was a sin, for obedience and disobedience are possible only on Earth and not in heaven, which is the location of Paradise.{{sfn|Ashrof|2005|p=74}} Adam fell on a mountain in India, the tallest in the world and so the closest to Heaven, and from there God sent him to Mecca, where he repented and was forgiven.{{sfn|Wheeler|2002|p=25,30}} At Mecca he built the first Sanctuary (the Kaabah - it was later rebuilt by Ibrahim) and was taught the ritual of the Hajj, and wove the first cloak for himself and the first veil and shift for Eve, and after this returned to India where he died at the age of 930, having seen the sons of the sons of his children, 1400 in all.{{sfn|Wheeler|2002|p=32,39,43}} According to the Ahmadiyya sect Adam was not the first human being on earth, but when the human race came into existence, and spread all over the world and developed the ability to receive revelation, God sent Adam to each and every branch and civilization. According to a revelation received by Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, the founder of the community, the Adam mentioned in the Quran was born 4,598 years before Muhammad.[11] In the Quran Adam is given the name by God known as the (Adam-I-Safi) or The Chosen One.[12][13] See also{{Portal|Creationism|Christianity|Islam|Judaism}}
