The picture above is from the bottom left corner of the picture in the opening page. You may see a snake on the lowest branch close to Eve.
Surprisingly there seems to be an angel hiding behind the branches in the top of the tree, so that Eve can not see him. I felt it must be Lucifer.
When he spoke, it might seem to Eve that it was the snake that was speaking.

Even in our time there are some people believing that the earth's surface is not a globe - but flat.

Approximate time of creation according to the Bible
This article states that Adam and Eve were created 4004 BC, but I guess it happened about 300 years later.
- When were Adam and Eve created?
Jewish year 5777 started 03 October 2016, indicating that it was 5777 years since creation of Adam.
If Adam was 52 years old when Eve gave him the forbidden fruit, it would be 5725 years since the sin came into the world.
1 BC - AD 1 = 1 year, so we subtract 2015 years (2016 - 1) to find the approximate year on the Gregorian calendar: 3710 BC.
Rabbi Yose ben Halafta estimated that Adam was created 3761 BC, which fits my own estimate well (3710 + 52 = 3762).
Since Adam and Eve were created on day 6, we can add at least 5000 years for the previous 5 creation days to find when creation on earth started: Approximately 8761 BC.
I found this very interesting video 31st March 2019, that is mostly confirming my reasoning above - except when the fall in sin happened:
#1 - Torah Parashah Bereshit - Hidden Prophecies in Creation! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QiKZb3LiZsg
- 1:10:40 Fall in sin happened 7 years after creation of Adam.
Maybe heaven and earth were already created then?
Maybe Genesis 1:1 - 1:2 describes an undefined period before the first creation day?
1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep.
And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
Maybe creation of light was all that happened on day one?
Genesis 1
3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
