The Wolf And The Lamb
A lamb in the river water, see the wolf, he wanted to find a right and proper excuse to eat him. So he ran up to the top and said savagely that the lamb had muddy the river so that he could not drink the water. Said the lamb, he just stood in the river water, and in the downstream, impossible to muddy the waters upstream. "My father was scolded last year," the wolf said again." The lamb said he was not yet born. The wolf said to him, "no matter how you justify it, I won't let you go."."
This shows that it is useless to make any justifiable excuse against the wicked.

愛的考驗
當夏娃站在“分別善惡樹”旁,聽著蛇溫和的言語時,第一絲疑慮進入她的心頭。
這時候,蛇又進一步引誘說:“因為上帝知道,你們吃這果子的時候,你們的眼就明亮了,你們就如同上帝那樣知道善惡。”
就這樣,夏娃漸漸向撒旦的詭計投降了,摘下果子,吃了下去,味道好極了,她又摘了一些給亞當吃了。
吃了之后,他們的眼真的明亮了,發現自己原來是赤身裸體,很害羞,于是用無花果樹的枝葉遮擋身體。這時他們突然覺得,往日的幸福感全都蕩然無存,剩下的只有憂慮和煩惱。他們只想逃跑,到處躲藏。
罪的代價
上帝找到了亞當和夏娃,對他們進行了嚴厲的審判。
因為夏娃犯罪在先,并且還誘惑了自己的丈夫犯罪,所以,她一生都要受丈夫的轄制,還要飽受九月懷孕胎之苦,分娩之痛;亞當被引誘犯罪,要以耕種養家糊口,地要長出蒺藜,除滅不盡。
引誘人犯罪的蛇也受到了應有的審判,要終生吃土,用肚皮行走。
一線希望
后來亞當和夏娃被神逐出了伊甸園,他們走了不遠,很快就注意到了許多變化。
其中一個變化就是:他們身上穿的是上帝給做的皮衣服,這衣服是人類造物主以他所有的技能,所有的關愛以及所有的溫柔做給他們的衣服。
不僅如此,夏娃還時不時的回想起上帝對他們說的話:“我又要叫你和女人彼此為仇,你的后裔也要和女人的后裔彼此為仇,女人的后裔要傷你的頭,你要傷女人的腳跟。”這里的你指的是“撒旦”。
夏娃知道,這些話含示,他們會有孩子,并且他們的后裔會傷蛇的頭,這就意味著,他們的子孫其中有一個會在沖突中贏得最后的勝利,這樣,她第一次看到了希望。
第一個嬰孩
上帝對亞當和夏娃說:“要生養眾多。”他不想讓他們孤獨,他要他們有一個大家庭,享受許許多多男孩和女孩的.愛和親情。
生男育女的能力其實是上帝為表達他親手創造的手造之物的愛,所給予最好的愛禮。
他們第一個孩子---世間出生的第一個孩子---名叫該隱。然而,這個世間第一個男人和女人生的第一個孩子,變成了世間第一個兇手。
第一次爭吵
《圣經》中記載的第二個男孩名叫亞伯。他是該隱出生后不久出生的,所以他們倆是一起長大的。
隨著時間的推移,男孩子們長大成人,他們表現出不同的愛好。該隱喜歡耕田種地,《圣經》上說他是“大地的耕者”
而亞伯,據說喜歡和動物在一起。他成了“羊群的看守者”---第一個牧羊人。
孩子們也知道應該給上帝獻祭,以表示對他的愛和尊敬。
“有一天,該隱把地里的出產做供物獻給上帝;同時亞伯也將自己羊群頭生的和羊的脂油獻上;上帝看重亞伯和他的供物,只是看不中該隱和他的供物。”
該隱心里充滿嫉妒,大大發怒,變了臉色,和弟弟大吵大鬧,最后動手殺了弟弟亞伯。
