Why should we care about Adam and Eve? Because, regardless of our religious beliefs, the Adam and Eve story is the oldest story in the world, one that so many people have been trying to understand for thousands of years. Failure has been guaranteed for one simple reason: evidence has been ignored. 1600 years ago, Saint Augustine, came to the conclusion that the forbidden "fruit" Adam and Eve ate in the Garden of Eden, was actual fruit, in spite of its mysterious name. He presented his exegesis in Chapter 8 of "The Literal Interpretation of Genesis." Is Saint Augustine's exegesis correct? This book will examine the evidence, in an effort to answer this question.
