Hi Hana, What leads you to ask this question? I don't see any direct application of this verse to us. However, the results of what happened in the garden of Eden are with us today. It is the disease of sin. C.H. Spurgeon said (in part) on this malady: "Worst of all, this disease causes death. There is no human being, in whom sin has not already caused spiritual death, and no one in whom it will not cause eternal death, unless God, in his almighty grace, shall prevent it. “The soul that sinneth, it shall die,” is a declaration that is only too terribly true. What that death will be, I shall not, at this time, attempt to show; but such words as these, coming from the lips of Christ, may tell you: “These shall go away into everlasting punishment,” “into the fire that never shall be quenched; where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched”. May none of you ever have to endure that death which never dies, — that dread eternal death, of which the Lord of life so positively speaks! Yet, as surely as God liveth, you will experience even that dread doom unless this mortal malady be healed." I hope this helps, BradK |

Hi BradK, I believe all scripture has some application to us today. This one I see as not only explaining how sin entered the world, but is a lesson to us on lust and pride leading to sin. saw that the tree was good for food...lust of the flesh it was a delight to the eyes...lust of the eye desirable to make one wise...pride of life The following scripture also speaks to this: 1 John 2:16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world. So when we lust after something not meant for us and/or have pride it will be with us as with Eve. We will eat the fruit of disobedience and will encourage others to do so as well. This will open the door in our lives to many undesirable things lest we repent quickly. Just my point of view. :-) Blessings, Bows44 |
