THE FIRST BOOK OF ADAM AND EVE
The First Book of Adam and Eve, an Apocryphal book, is a Christian extracanonical work found in Ge'ez, translated from an Arabic original.
It does not form part of the canon of any known church, but is a late part of the broad family of Old Testament Pseudepigrapha literature which includes the Life of Adam and Eve, Apocalypse of Adam, Testament of Adam and Books of Adam. It does not make any claims as to its authorship, and thus is technically not pseudepigrapha, a word meaning "falsely ascribed to an author who did not actually write it."
Books 1 and 2 begin immediately after the expulsion from the Garden of Eden, and end with the testament and translation of Enoch. Great emphasis is placed in Book 1 on Adam's sorrow and helplessness in the world outside the garden.
In Book 2, the "sons of God" who appear in Genesis 6:2 are identified as the children of Seth, and the "daughters of men" as women descended from Cain, who successfully tempt most of the Sethites to come down from their mountain and join the Cainites in the valley below, under the instigation of Genun, son of Lamech. This Genun, as the inventor of musical instruments, seems to correspond to the Biblical Jubal; however he also invents weapons of war. The Cainites, descended from Cain the first murderer, are described as exceedingly wicked, being prone to commit murder and incest. After seducing the Sethites, their offspring become the Nephilim, the "mighty men" of Gen. 6 who are all destroyed in the deluge, as also detailed in other works such as I Enoch and Jubilees.

This is the third App I'm enjoying from this expert Developer. Suffice it to say this is another great book made easy to read in an App format. Having said that I want to add something about the ads: don't let the fact this App has ads attached to it put you off. It is time consuming and expensive to create and publish Apps. In order to keep them free many developers allow ads. The ads attached to this Developer's Apps are few, and non-intrusive.
Thanks
Settings are on the side yet are inaccessible. My eyes are sensitive to light and there seems to be no light/day mode
