Today we start in Genesis, chapters 1 – 3 covering the Creation of the Heavens and Earth, Adam and Eve and the fall of Man. There are a couple interesting elements to today’s readings that are sometimes overlooked.
1 – While many assume Eve was the gullible one that listened to snake and was deceived, I find it interesting that God instructed Adam not to eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil prior to the creation of Eve.
2 – Adam was with Eve when the snake deceived her, he did not stop the snake. The end of Genesis 3:6 says “She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. ”
3 – Like we all did as child when been questioned by our parents Adam immediately blamed Eve. “The woman you put here with me—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”
That’s all for now… Enjoy todays reading!
