Overview

According to the apocryphal "The First Book of Adam and Eve," when they left the garden they were forced to live in a cave, which was called The Cave of Treasures. The book says that they went through a lot of suffering after leaving the garden, especially in the first year after their departure; they tried several times to kill themselves and return to paradise, until they had their first children (Cain, Abel and their sisters - not quoted in the Bible). According to the First Book of Adam and Eve, the couple would have repented and obtained forgiveness; and several other times they received from God the promise of a ransom, from a Savior who would be born in the human germ, to redeem their offspring, and these promises consoled them. They came upon the enmity of Satan, who sought to kill them and seduced them, becoming an angel of light, and telling them that they were a heavenly envoy, charged with carrying divine messages. Although they were outside the garden, Adam and Eve listened to the voice of God, who always sent them His word, clearing up their doubts.
