Killing Eden
Who was the infamous evildoer of legend and history that tempted Eve in the Garden of Eden? Was it only a mischievous talking snake wrapped around a tree, or a fallen angel who took over a reptile's body? "Killing Eden" combines three fascinating meanings of the complex Hebrew word for "snake" found in the Genesis 3 story, to offer new speculation on the nature of the world's first villain, and on the woman who fell for its schemes.

Adam and Eve are high priests of Eden, God's home on earth. They sit with God's Divine Council and are destined to become co-rulers of the cosmos. Why then does Eve turn away from paradise to lust for the status of the gods? This intriguing short story about the earth's first woman and the being who coaxed her to eat from the tree of death will leave you hungry for more about the classic Bible story of the Fall.
