1. The Lord God took the man and placed him in the garden of Eden to work it and watch over it. And the Lord God
commanded the man, "You are free to eat from any tree of the garden, but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil,
for on the day you eat from it, you will certainly die." (Gen 2:15-17, CSB)
How would you draw the tree of knowledge of good and evil?
What kind of fruit would it have?
Who did God give instructions to?
2. 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'?" The woman said to the serpent, "We may eat the fruit from the trees in
the garden. But about the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden, God said, 'You must not eat it or touch it, or you will die.'"
"No! You will certainly not die," the serpent said to the woman. (Gen 3:1-4, CSB)
How did Satan test the Woman?
3. "In fact, God knows that when you eat it your eyes will be opened and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."
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. (Gen 3:5-6, CSB)
How did Satan tempt the Woman?
What do you notice about Adam?
4. Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and
made coverings for themselves. Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden at the time of the evening
breeze, and they hid from the Lord God among the trees of the garden. So the Lord God called out to the man and said to him, "Where are you?"
And he said, "I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid."
Then he
asked, "Who told you that you were naked? Did you eat from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?" The man replied, "The woman you
gave to be with me—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate."
So the Lord God asked the woman,
"What have you done?" And the woman said, "The serpent deceived me, and I ate." (Gen 3:7-13, CSB)
Who did Adam blame for his eating of the fruit?
Who did his wife blame for eating of the fruit?
