Temptation of Adam
Chapter
15

21.1 And I cried out in that very hour, "Adam, Adam, where are you? Rise up, come to me and I will show you a great mystery."21.2 But when your father came, I spoke to him words of transgression which have brought us down from our great glory.21.3 For, when he came, I opened my mouth and the devil was speaking, and I began to exhort him and said, "Come hither, my lord Adam, hearken to me and eat of the fruit of the tree of which God told us not to eat of it, and you shall be as a God."21.4 And your father answered and said, "I fear lest God be angry with me. "And I said to him, "Fear not, for as soon as you have eaten you shall know good and evil."21.5 And speedily I persuaded him, and he ate and his eyes were opened and he too knew his nakedness.21.6 And to me he said, "O wicked woman! what have you done to us? You have deprived me of the glory of God."
