Chapter XXXV
Text | Commentary |
1So did Adam speak to his sons. And he was seized with violent pains and cried out loudly, What shall I do? I am exhausted, so cruel are the pains that grip me. 2And when Eve saw him weeping, she also began to weep herself and said, O Lord, my God, transfer to me his pain, for it was I who sinned. 3And Eve said to Adam, My lord, let me share your pains, 1 Lit. ‘give me a part of your pains’. for it is my fault they have come on you.
Notes:
1 Lit. ‘give me a part of your pains’.
