Bible Question:
How did satan tempt eve and what did he use? Some have stated down through years it was an apple but is this really in ther Bible or just talk? Please help !!! |
Bible Answer: It was fruit of the Tree of knowledge of good and evil. Gen 2:9,17; 3:3 No one knows what kind of fruit it was. It is most likely that it no longer exists because God barred the way to the garden so man could not eat of the tree of life(Gen 3:23,24) and the curse makes the ground produce thorns and thistles (3:18). So it appears that all the trees in the garden no longer exist. What did Satan use? PRIDE. He appealed to Eve's pride and tried to get her to commit his sin, overthrowing God. (Gen 3:5) |
