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 […]
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.” The promised enlightenment the serpent had convinced them of did not bring Adam and […]
Genesis 3:7 “Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves coverings.” As soon as the man ate of the fruit, both Adam and Eve realized their nakedness, and for the first time, were ashamed. The Hebrew word translated […]
Genesis 3:6 “So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate.” Through the ages, women have borne much ridicule […]
