Adam and Eve In Genesis 1 God creates the universe in seven days‚ reserving for his sixth-day labor the climax of creation: man and woman.

example is when people are upset over the loss of a loved one‚ their parents are there to comfort them. After Cain murders Abel‚ God gives Eve another son‚ Seth‚ to console her. Another way God is like a parent is He sets rules and advises His children. First‚ just as parents advise their children not eat certain candies and foods‚ so does God. God tells Adam and Eve never to eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. One more way God is equivalent to a parent is He disciplines His children. One
