To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Who cannot see, without close examination, that Jehovah had not placed two trees in the garden, and one of them for a stumbling- block, but for the sake of some spiritual representation ? And that they were cursed because they botli ate of any tree, and that the curse clings to every man coming after them, and thus that the whole human race was damned for the fault of one man, in which there was no evil of the lusts of the flesh, and no iniquity of heart, — does this square with Divine justice?... And, first of all, why did not Jehovah withhold him from eating ? as He was present and saw it. And why did He not cast the serpent down into the lower woild {Orcus), before he persuaded them ? But, my friend, God did not do this, because He would thus have deprived man of free will, from which, nevertheless, man is man, and not a beast. When this is known, it is very evident thaL by those t\vo trees, one for life and the other for death, was represented man's free will in spiritual things. Moreover hereditary evil is not from that, but from parents, by whom is transmitted to their children an inclination towards the evil in which they themselves have been.
