Did Adam glow with the radiance of God prior to his fall?

I was reading a book that has the story of the fall of adam and eve from a jewish perspective. The gentlemen who wrote it is a professor of jewish theology and intermingled the OT, jewish acrophya and legend. Found it quite interesting.

My question is, Did Adam also appear to glow with the radiance of God prior to his fall?

Adam being so much like God, Did the serpent plot Adam's fall out of jealousy and did the serpent see his opportunity to destroy Adam in Eve?

In Jesus,

Jim

Jim-- did the book you read take the position that Adam "glowed?" i dont believe that the Bible indicates that he glowed or radiated, so i am curious where the author got this idea.

another interesting question is whether Adam had a "resurrection body" like we will have some day, or whether his "perfect" body was something different.
