A Rationalist Approach to Eden

Rabbi Natan Slifkin of the Rationalist Judaism blog (I reviewed his books here and here) has been posting brief translations of Rabbi Gedaliah Nadel's Orthodox rationalist writings, which some Charedi authorities have tried to suppress. I found the second one particularly interesting; while I have seen various people deal with the creation (not least Rabbi Slifkin himself), this was the first time I have seen the nature of Eden and the snake dealt with in a rationalist way.
