The Temptation and the Fall
1 Now the serpent was the most cunning of all the wild animals that the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God really say, ‘You can’t eat from any tree in the garden’? " 3:1 Mt 10:16; 2Co 11:3; Rv 12:9; 20:2
6 The woman saw that the tree was good for food and delightful to look at, and that it was desirable for obtaining wisdom. So she took some of its fruit and ate it; she also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. 3:6 1Tm 2:14; Jms 1:14–15; 1Jn 2:16
15 I will put hostility between you and the woman,
and between your offspring and her offspring. 3:15 Lit your seed and her seed
He will strike your head,
and you will strike his heel. 3:15 Heb 2:14; 1Jn 3:8
20 The man named his wife Eve 3:20 Lit Living, or Life because she was the mother of all the living.
