6 But now, O Adam, you shall acknowledge My good deeds
done to you."
7 And God told His angels to take Adam and Eve, and to
bear them up to the field of wheat, which they found as
before, with the bucket full of water.
8 There they saw a tree, and found on it solid manna;
and wondered at God's power. And the angels commanded them
to eat of the manna when they were hungry.
9 And God admonished Satan with a curse, not to come
again, and destroy the field of corn.
10 Then Adam and Eve took of the corn, and made of it
an offering, and took it and offered it up on the mountain,
the place where they had offered up their first offering of
blood.
11 And they offered this offering again on the altar
they had built at first. And they stood up and prayed, and
besought the Lord saying, "Thus, O God, when we were in the
garden, our praises went up to you, like this offering;
and our innocence went up to you like incense. But now, O
God, accept this offering from us, and don't turn us away,
deprived of Your mercy."
12 Then God said to Adam and Eve, "Since you have made
this offering and have offered it to Me, I shall make it My
flesh, when I come down on earth to save you; and I shall
cause it to be offered continually on an altar, for
forgiveness and for mercy, for those who partake of it
duly.
