According to the [[Bible|biblical]] book of [[Genesis]], [[God]] created the Garden of Eden as a dwelling place for the first two humans, [[Adam]] and [[Eve]].  The garden was a paradise of plenty where Adam and Eve would never suffer illness or death.  Unfortunately, Adam and Eve defied the will of God by eating the [[forbidden fruit]] at the center of the garden, and God cast them out of the garden so that they would no longer live forever.  According to Genesis, a [[cherub]] with a flaming sword then guarded the Garden of Eden to prevent humans from returning.

Adam and Eve initially had two children, Cain and Abel. After Cain killed Abel, and was cursed to wander, Adam and Eve conceived another child named Seth. The sons are explicitly named in Genesis, although it does state that there were other sons and daughters as well (Genesis 5:4).

According to the Bible all humans on Earth are descendants of Adam and Eve. Their children Cain and Seth create two separate lineages of human life on Earth.  Cain and Seth must have had sexual intercourse with their mother Eve, or an unnamed sister to propagate humanity. This was not necessarily considered immoral because there was no other way to create children.
