Editor's Note: The original title of this article, "Is Saying Adam and Eve Were 'Cast Out' Scriptural?" misrepresented the author's intent in focusing on the biblical accounts of the story of Eve and Adam. While the excerpt was accurate, the podcast guest intended to focus on ancient scripture. While the words "cast out" do not appear in the Bible or in the Pearl of Great Price, the words "cast out" are used in Doctrine and Covenants 29:41 which reads, "Wherefore, I, the Lord God, caused that he should be cast out from the Garden of Eden."
