"Paradise lost" is a very interesting and religious story. The write make a point to describe the unfaithfulness of angles and fall of human from the heaven. The basic theme of the poem is man‘s first disobediently to God. “Of man's first disobedience and the fruit of that forbidden tree, whose mortal taste” (2555). This first disobedience is caused by rebellion and distrust of God. Satan is the one who was disobedient and he yield to self-will instead of surrendering to God and desiring His will in all things. The writer also tries to show that man is not thankful creature of God. Adam and Eve are also not grateful to God for what they already have. The choice to disobey God by Adam and Eve led to the fall of man.
I am not a Christian but I am well aware of Adam –Eve’ real story. In my opinion, the writer tries to pictures Satan as a sympatric figure in the poem. He thinks Satan is a pitiful light and the reader may feel guilty to consider him an evil sprit. Like he said, “For his revolt, yet faithful how they stood”(2560). Satan is just insisting to change the god’s will , Like when a kid insists his father to do something and this action doesn’t make him bad Kid. But in reality it is Satan who is still causing the fall of the man.

Your analysis of "Paradise Lost" is mostly accurate, but there are a few areas that could be clarified or expanded upon.
"Paradise Lost" is indeed a very interesting and religious story written by John Milton. The poem focuses on the fall of man from the Garden of Eden and explores themes of disobedience, rebellion, and the consequences of human actions.
You correctly identify the poem's central theme as man's first disobedience to God. This disobedience is specifically linked to the eating of the forbidden fruit from the Tree of Knowledge. The poem begins with the famous line, "Of man's first disobedience and the fruit of that forbidden tree, whose mortal taste brought death into the world, and all our woe." (Book 1, line 1-3) This act of disobedience is significant because it represents humanity's rejection of God's authority and their desire to pursue their own desires.
You mention that Satan is the one who is disobedient and rebels against God's will. This is true. Satan, portrayed as a sympathetic figure in the poem, refuses to submit to God and instead chooses to follow his own self-will. However, it is important to note that while the writer may present Satan in a complex light, ultimately, Satan's actions lead to the fall of man. Satan tempts and deceives Adam and Eve, leading them to disobey God and ultimately bringing about their expulsion from the Garden of Eden.
Regarding your statement about Satan being a pitiful and sympathetic figure, it is true that Milton's portrayal of Satan can evoke some sympathy from readers due to his pride and ambition. However, it is essential to recognize that Satan's actions are driven by his rebellion against God and his desire to undermine God's plan. Despite any sympathy we may feel for him, Satan is ultimately portrayed as the antagonist in the poem, responsible for causing humanity's downfall.
In conclusion, "Paradise Lost" is a thought-provoking religious epic that explores themes of disobedience, rebellion, and the consequences of human actions. While offering a complex portrayal of Satan, the poem ultimately holds him accountable for the fall of humanity.
