本文从正义的角度解读了失乐园中撒旦和人类的堕落。撒旦和人都有自由意志。人类在撒旦的引诱下吃下了禁果,从而有了自由意志,可以选择从善或从恶。撒旦用自己的自由意志来满足私欲,引诱人类一步步走向堕落,受到上帝的制裁。人的自由意志从亚当和夏娃开始,那时自由意志是至善的,此后人类繁衍生息,拥有了可以选择不恶的能力。上帝给予了人类选择的自由,决定权在于人类。 This article explains Satan and the fall of mankind in Paradise Lost from the perspective of justice. Satan and man have a free will. Human beings, under the lure of Satan, have eaten the forbidden fruit and have the free will to choose between good and evil. Satan used his own free will to satisfy his desires and lured mankind step by step toward depravity and sanctioned by God. The free will of man began with Adam and Eve, when the free will was perfection, after which mankind flourished and had the power to choose no evil. God has given the freedom of human choice, the decision is human.
