Bible Stories for Kids
The first man’s name was Adam and his wife he named Eve as she is the mother of all people. They lived in a beautiful Garden away in the East Country which was called Eden, filled with beautiful trees and flowers of all kinds but they did not live in Eden for long as they did not obey God’s command, but ate the fruit of a tree which had been forbidden them.
They were driven forth by an angel and had to give up their beautiful home. So Adam and his wife went out into the world to live and to work. For a time they were all alone, but after a while God gave them a little child of their own, the first baby that ever came into the world. Eve named him Cain; and after a time another baby came, whom she named Abel. When the two boys grew up, they worked, as their father worked before them.
