What happened after Eden? An ancient Christian legend imagines it all: a cave called the Cave of Treasures, Satan returning again and again in disguise, gifts of gold, incense and myrrh, the first murder, and Seth's children losing their holy mountain before the Flood. Hailey reviews The First and Second Books of Adam and Eve, walks through both books, and fact checks where the text really comes from and how it differs from Genesis.
