Answer 1

Milton's account of the creation of the earth shows that God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit created the world with great love.

Step-by-step explanation:

Milton's account of the creation of the earth shows that God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit created the world with great love. In Christian theology, Christ is seen as the second Adam, and Mary (Jesus' mother) is seen as the second Eve. The idea here is that where Adam and Eve caused original sin and were expelled from paradise (the Garden of Eden), Mary and Christ made it possible for human beings to have eternal life in paradise (heaven), through Christ's sacrifice on the cross.
