Summary/Abstract: The concept of Paradise is one with ontologic reverberations, and it illustrates a magical place, defined by perfect harmony, a place that has always been present in every human culture and civilization. According to the mosaic and Christian teachings regarding the creation of the man, the so called perfect couple represents the duo that, after having lost their privileged status, must overcome a series of challenges in order to rediscover the lost paradise.
