Did he really then
become king over us?
12 But we will ask God, who created us, to deliver us
out of his hands."
Chapter LVIII - "About sunset on the 53rd day. . ."
1 Then Adam and Eve spread their hands before God,
praying and begging Him to drive Satan away from them so
that he can't harm them or force them to deny God.
2 Then God sent to them at once, His angel, who drove
away Satan from them. This happened about sunset, on the
fifty-third day after they had come out of the garden.
3 Then Adam and Eve went into the cave, and stood up
and turned their faces to the ground, to pray to God.
4 But before they prayed Adam said to Eve, "Look, you
have seen what temptations have befallen us in this land.
Come, let us get up, and ask God to forgive us the sins we
have committed; and we will not come out until the end of
the day next to the fortieth. And if we die in here, He
will save us."
5 Then Adam and Eve got up, and joined together in
entreating God.
6 They continued praying like this in the cave;
neither did they come out of it, by night or by day, until
their prayers went up out of their mouths, like a flame of fire.
