In Mark Twain's play, Adam and Eve, Adam is depicted as arrogant and, at times, rather obnoxious, because he is so self-centered.

That theme continues throughout the play until the final scene, when Adam is alone. This arrogant, insensitive, domineering man says, "Eve died last night, and I have come to understand, to know now, that wherever Eve was was Eden."
Moses' farewell song to the Hebrews sought to make them aware that wherever God is there is life and love.
