A:The Book of Genesis is mainly concerned with the myths and legends of the early Hebrews and should not be expected to deal very much with historical realities. It does, however, deal with ethical realities. for example, Leon R. Kass (The Beginning of Wisdom: Reading Genesis) says we can learn most from the story of Adam and Eve by regarding it as a mythical yet realistic portrait of permanent truths about our humanity.
