Subject: Forbidden fruit represents sex? |
Bible Note: Thanks for the answer. Her cousin is a priest and she's going to check w/him. I avoided a discussion about it because I was honestly so shocked to hear that interpretation, I had never heard that before. I had the same thought as you, there never was a couple more ordained by God to be a couple, He made her for him!! It made me chuckle though, my mother-in-law probably thought eating fruit was "just" a venial sin..... Thanks again, reilly |
