Among later generations of men, there were but few who in a measure resembled Adam in his extraordinary size and physical perfections. Samson possessed his strength, Saul his neck, Absalom his hair, Asahel his fleetness of foot, Uzziah his forehead, Josiah his nostrils, Zedekiah his eyes, and Zerubbabel his voice. 2. The original man posessed the gift of prophecy (gift of Holy Spirit): "But without the gift of the Holy Spirit, Adam could not have found names for all; he was in very truth a prophet, and his wisdom a prophetic quality." "In the hour that intervened between breathing a soul into the first man and his becoming alive, God revealed the whole history of mankind to him." 3. When created, he was as a man of 20 years of age. 4. Adam's appointed lifespan was to be a thousand years, one of the Lord's days "Of his own free will Adam relinquished seventy of his allotted years. His appointed span was to be a thousand years, one of the Lord's days. But he saw that only a single minute of life was apportioned to the great soul of David, and he made a gift of seventy years to her, reducing his own years to nine hundred and thirty." 5. Adam was the inventor of all the seventy languages. God showed Adam the whole earth, and Adam designated what places were to be settled later by men, and what places were to remain waste. 6. God had fashioned Adam's soul with particular care. It is the image of God, and as God fills the world, so the soul fills the human body; as God sees all things, and is seen by none, so the soul sees, but cannot be seen; as God guides the world, so the soul guides the body; as God in His holiness is pure, so is the soul; and as God dwells in secret, so doth the soul. 7. The soul of man, possesses five different powers. By means of one of them she escapes from the body every night, rises up to heaven, and fetches new life thence for man. 8 The dust (of which Adam was created) was of various colors—red, black, white, and green—red for the blood, black for the bowels, white for the bones and veins, and green for the pale skin. 8. The grace and lovingkindness of God revealed themselves particularly in His taking one spoonful of dust (when creating Adam) from the spot where in time to come the altar would stand, saying, "I shall take man from the place of atonement, that he may endure. 9. Adam is the only one who was created by the hand of God. The rest of creation sprang from the word of God. The body of man is a microcosm, the whole world in miniature, and the world in turn is a reflex of man. The hair upon his head corresponds to the woods of the earth, his tears to a river, his mouth to the ocean. Also, the world resembles the ball of his eye: the ocean that encircles the earth is like unto the white of the eye, the dry land is the iris, Jerusalem the pupil, and the Temple the image mirrored in the pupil of the eye. But man is more than a mere image of this world. He unites both heavenly and earthly qualities within himself. In four he resembles the angels, in four the beasts. His power of speech, his discriminating intellect, his upright walk, the glance of his eye—they all make an angel of him. But, on the other hand, he eats and drinks, secretes the waste matter in his body, propagates his kind, and dies, like the beast of the field. Therefore God said before the creation of man: "The celestials are not propagated, but they are immortal; the beings on earth are propagated, but they die. I will create man to be the union of the two, so that when he sins, when he behaves like a beast, death shall overtake him; but if he refrains from sin, he shall live forever." 10. Adam was buried in Palestine, Israel. Christian tradition places the tomb of Adam in Jerusalem, under the place where Jesus was crucified, called the "Cave of Treasures" and described in the Syriac "Book of the Cave of Treasures (1st Book of Adam and Eve)". Jewish and Moslem traditions generally place the burial place of Adam in the Cave of Machpelah (Hebron, Israel) where Abraham and his sons are also said to be buried. All three traditions mention that Seth was responsible for the burial of his father Adam. ----------------------------- READ ONLINE: http://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/1493/pg1493-images.html #ApocryphaMX #LibriVoxMX [LU9yNxKkF2Y] |
