On the sixth day the earth was delivered of Abadam,
the very image of the Spirit conceived in the likeness of a lump of clay.
*
The Spirit breathed life into the clod and Abadam rose to his feet.
*
His head was level with the divine seat in heaven.
*
As he looked about the celestial abode his huge frame
and radiant countenance, so amazed the angels that
they flocked, trembling to the Spirit: “can there be
two divine powers, one in heaven, the other on earth? ”
*
To calm them the Spirit placed its hand upon Abadam,
vastly diminishing his aura and greatly reducing his size.
*
Then it smote Abadam in half and by thus dividing
his nature, the spirit created a second man, the
twin of Abadam whom it named Abadel.
*
The Spirit set the twins on its holy mountain
in the east as custodians of the garden.
