Genesis 3:22-23 Then the Lord God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of Us, to know good and evil. And now, lest he put out his hand and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever”— therefore the Lord God sent him out of the garden of Eden to […]
Genesis 3:21 “Also for Adam and his wife the Lord God made tunics of skin and clothed them” Within this statement is an incredible truth that reveals the heart of God. Even though man had transgressed His commandment and was subject to exile, the Creator, nevertheless, showed mercy. An apron of fig leaves was only […]
Genesis 3:17b-19 Then to Adam, He said, … “Cursed is the ground for your sake; In toil, you shall eat of it All the days of your life. Both thorns and thistles it shall [f]bring forth for you, and you shall eat the herb of the field. In the sweat of your face, you shall […]
Genesis 3:17 Then to Adam, He said, “Because you have heeded the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it,’ cursed is the ground for your sake; in toil, you shall eat of it all the days of your life.” “Because […]
Genesis 3:16b “Your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you.” When it comes to the roles of men and women, it’s not a popular thing to live by the biblical standard set by the Creator in today’s world. Put simply, He established that men were to lead and serve as […]
Genesis 3:16a To the woman, He said: “I will greatly multiply your sorrow and your conception; in pain, you shall bring forth children.” In the previous verses, God cursed the serpent for his role in the fall of man. But when it came to the woman, the Creator did not curse her but determined the […]
Genesis 3:15 “And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise His heel.” I’m not of the opinion that after receiving this sentence, the Adversary threw up a white flag and gave up. On the contrary, I would […]
Genesis 3:15 “And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise His heel.” This is one of the most profound and fundamental of all verses in the whole of Scripture because it establishes a principle that runs from […]
Genesis 3:14 So the Lord God said to the serpent: “Because you have done this, you are cursed more than all cattle, and more than every beast of the field; on your belly you shall go, and you shall eat dust all the days of your life.” After addressing the woman with her part in […]
Genesis 3:11-12 And He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you that you should not eat?” Then the man said, “The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate.” When asked a direct question, […]
Genesis 3:9-10 Then the Lord God called to Adam and said to him, “Where are you?” So he said, “I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked, and I hid myself.” Considering that the All-knowing God asked the question, “Where are you?,” are we to consider that the […]
Genesis 3:8 “And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.” I have always found it interesting that Adam and Eve decided to hide themselves […]
