ELTB TT adult Introduction []


The story of Adam and Eve in the garden is the story of the source of temptation, suffering, and peace. The account was written by Adam and bears his signature in Ge 5:1 (see Appendix A). Though the story is real history, God nudged Adam to write his story in such a way, that God could hide another message, that Adam didn't know about. We will examine both the history, and the hidden drama.

Cast of Characters

  • God plays himself. I mean really... Who else would be qualified to play God?
  • Adam plays the role of Christ.
  • Eve will represent the church; those who are taught by Christ. [1]
  • Animals will represent people who don't know God.
  • The serpent will play the part of Eve's heart.

Props

  • Trees always represent the cross.
  • Apron of leaves will represent the works of men.
  • Garment of skin is like light. It is not light, but it is like it, representing a kind of holiness.
  • The path represents a life which allows you into, or keeps you out of the garden.
