Which excerpt from Paradise Lost shows Satan's plan to destroy Adam and Eve?
Correct Answer:
Raphael advises Adam on obedience
Explanation:
Satan’s plan to destroy Adam and Eve is shown through his act of tempting them in the Garden. In that moment he moves from plotting to action, disguising himself as a serpent and insinuating ideas that prompt disobedience. By appealing to Eve’s curiosity and desire for knowledge, he persuades her to eat the forbidden fruit and, when she shares it with Adam, to transgress God’s command as well. This scene captures the method of his ruin: undermine obedience to God by sowing doubt and enticing them to act against divine prohibition, bringing mortality and separation into humanity. The other moments you might consider focus on obedience, punishment, or defending divine order rather than on Satan’s direct strategy to corrupt mankind; they don’t depict his scheming as clearly or as centrally as the temptation scene does.
