Reading Notes Part A: Adam and Eve Unit

Above is the link to my revised story for my portfolio. 

When God wanted to make the creation of Eve, he took some body parts of Adam. The creation of a man to a women was perfect because Adam was born with two faces, which was then used for the birth of Eve.

God had to truly think about how he would create a woman, since this had never been done before. He wanted her to elegant, beautiful, and captivating. He did not want to use the exact body structures from Adam because God believed a woman should have her own physical traits. 

The formation of woman is much different than a male as well because the female body must be built for the function of child-bearing, which is the ability to become pregnant and give birth to either a man or a woman. The voice of a woman is piercing and high-pitched, where as a man's voice is low-pitched and powerful.

In order to create Eve, Adam was made to fall into a deep sleep. Eve was then taken from a rib of Adam's, and formed into a woman. Eve brought sin into this world, which is a religious belief. Woman hid their hair as a token of sin from Eve.

When Adam woke up from his deep sleep, he saw Eve. With her deep beauty and grace, he instantly fell in love. He was captivated by her. He knew he wanted to marry her.

 

The angles sang at the wedding. God presented Eve to Adam, and God pronounced his approval and blessings to the married couple. The angels were freaking out when the bridal party kissed each other, however, God knew this was the beginning of mankind. Adam and Eve were smiling from ear to ear, their love and compassion for each other was contagious. 


The angels, bridal party, and God all danced together to celebrate the beauty of this marriage. God knew he made the right decision marrying the two.

Once upon a time, there was a sun goddess, whom was high of the heavens named  Amaterasu. She was known to sit in the middle of the night weaving a web of Doom.
