Subject: who told eve to tell the serpent , |
Bible Note: Hello Mark, Your right of course. My mistake. I should have been more specific to say that the bible doesn't tell us. This is one of those areas where we have to use some discernment. When I read and consider the story I have to take what is given in scripture and draw some fair conclusions. Drawn from 1). The clear instructions from God. 2). Eve's response to Satan; which includes instructions that weren't given by God. So, to be more specific. Someone expanded and/or misinterpreted God's specific word. Whether Adam or Eve we can't know. What we do know, however, is we do have record of Eve stating it wrongly. Thanks for encouraging me to clarify my thoughts. Jeff |
