Adam (Hebrew: אָדָם, ʼĀḏām, "man; mankind"; Arabic: آدم, ʼĀdam) and Eve (Hebrew: חַוָּה, Ḥawwā, "living one") were, according to the Genesis creation narrative, the first human couple to inhabit Earth, created by YHWH, the God of the ancient Hebrews. Adam and Eve ate fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, causing their expulsion from the Garden of Eden.
