remain in her uncleanness
seven days according to the
first week of days, and thirty
and three days shall she
remain in the blood of her
purifying, and she shall not
touch any hallowed thing, nor
enter into the sanctuary, until
she accomplisheth these days
which (are enjoined) in the
case of a male child.
11 But in the case of a female
child she shall remain in her
uncleanness two weeks of
days, according to the first two
weeks, and sixty-six days in
the blood of her purification,
and they will be in all eighty
days.” 12 And when she
had completed these eighty
days we brought her into the
Garden of Eden, for it is holier
than all the earth besides, and
every tree that is planted in it is
holy. 13 Therefore, there was
ordained regarding her who
beareth a male or a female
child the statute of those
days that she should touch no
hallowed thing, nor enter into
the sanctuary until these days
for the male or female child
are accomplished. 14 This is
the law and testimony which
was written down for Israel,
in order that they should
observe (it) all the days. 15

wife were in the Garden of
Eden for seven years tilling
and keeping it, and we gave
him work and we instructed
him to do everything that is
suitable for tillage. 16 And
he tilled (the garden), and
was naked and knew it not,
and was not ashamed, and he
protected the garden from the
birds and beasts and cattle,
and gathered its fruit, and ate,
and put aside the residue for
himself and for his wife [and
put aside that which was being
kept].
17 And after the completion
of the seven years, which he
had completed there, seven
years exactly, and in the second
month, on the seventeenth day
(of the month), the serpent
came and approached the
woman, and the serpent said
to the woman, “Hath God
commanded you, saying, Ye
shall not eat of every tree of
the garden?” 18 And she said
to it, “Of all the fruit of the
trees of the garden Elohim
hath said unto us, Eat; but
of the fruit of the tree which
is in the midst of the garden
Elohim hath said unto us, Ye
shall not eat thereof, neither
shall ye touch it, lest ye die.”
19 And the serpent said unto
the woman, “Ye shall not
surely die: for Elohim doth
