This book is a in-depth study of the stages of humanity's fall from the divine glory that surrounded it at creation.

The mindset that underpins its writing is based on the belief that every interpretative approach to the divine Scriptures should help the reader to know better, to understand more deeply, and ultimately to love the benevolent God "with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind."

Thus, it takes the form of a loose commentary on the first eleven chapters of the Book of Genesis, exclusively from the text of the Septuagint interpretation, richly adorned with comments and thoughts from the enlightened pen of the holy Fathers of the Church.

At the same time, through the presentation of new interpretative proposals, particularly on yet unclear biblical issues, it aims to dynamically expand the interpretative theological experience and to strongly reinforce Ecclesiastical Apologetics in our time, especially in view of the impending re-evangelization of the nations.
