Apocrypha · Chapter 40 of 79
Conflict of Adam and Eve
Then the Word of God came to Adam, and said to him, "O Adam, why didn't you have this dread, or this fasting, or this care before now? And why didn't you have this fear before you transgressed?
2But when you came to live in this strange land, your animal body could not survive on earth without earthly food, to strengthen it and to restore its powers."
3And God withdrew His Word for Adam.
