Scene 1 · Intermediate
This is the story of the heavens and the earth when God created them. At that time, no plants or herbs had grown in the fields. God had not yet sent rain, and there was no man to work the soil. Instead, mist rose from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground.
God formed a man, Adam, from the dust of the ground. He breathed the breath of life into the man’s nostrils, and the man became a living soul.
