Popis:	Roland J. Teske admits to two principal difficulties against his own claim that the «De Genesi contra Manichaeos» portrays the soul as fallen. But those difficulties dissolve if we accept that Augustine thought of the celestial or spiritual body as invisible, and that the dato non concesso style of his argument implies that he does not grant the Manichee inference that the pre-fallen Eve was historically created as an embodied, individuated woman. The first «De Genesis», therefore, consistently portrays Adam-Eve as Soul, created as celestially embodied, and subsequently fallen into moral or animal bodies as a result of sin
