In Book 1, the punished Serpent attempts to kill Adam and Eve, but is prevented by God, who again punishes the Serpent by rendering it mute and casting it to India.

Examples of Christianized works is The Book of Adam and Eve, known as the Conflict of Adam and Eve with Satan, translated from the Ethiopian Ge'ez by Solomon Caesar Malan (1882) [36] and an original Syriac work entitled Cave of Treasures [37] which has close affinities to the Conflict as noted by August Dillmann.

Apps like Text With Jesus now offer the faithful, or perhaps the bored, a way to summon the voices of Jesus, the Virgin Mary and even Satan through language modeling programs.

The issue is said to be whether God can rightfully claim to be sovereign of the universe.
