Genesis 3:7 - 3:15
GenesisSteve Gregg
In Genesis 3, Eve eats from the tree of knowledge, causing her and Adam to feel shame and a desire to cover themselves. God calls out to them, and while Adam confesses, he also shifts blame onto Eve, highlighting the tendency for individuals to deflect responsibility for their sins. The Fall of Man leads to a change in the nature of the relationship between humanity and nature, making it unfriendly and resistant to man's efforts, and man becomes a slave to sin with the responsibility to tend the earth and deal with agricultural hardships.
