The Fall

The Fall generally refers to the biblical story of Adam and Eve's disobedience to God, leading to humanity's estrangement from divine grace. It symbolizes the transition from innocence to awareness of good and evil. In a broader context, "the fall" can also represent the decline of civilizations or the loss of virtue. It evokes themes of temptation, moral failure, and the consequences of human choices. This concept has influenced literature, philosophy, and religion, exploring the complexities of human nature, free will, and the struggle between good and evil throughout history.
