In the biblical account, Eve is the first woman created by God, fashioned from Adam's rib in the Garden of Eden. Her story is one of temptation, betrayal, and the fall from grace. She is lured into eating the forbidden fruit by the serpent, leading to her expulsion from paradise and the introduction of sin and suffering into the world. Despite her role in the downfall of humanity, Eve is also seen as the mother of all living and a symbol of fertility and creation.
