Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, "Has God indeed said, 'You shall not eat of every tree of the garden?" Genesis 3:1
Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, "Has God indeed said, 'You shall not eat of every tree of the garden?" Genesis 3:1
This was the beginning of the fall of man who was blessed of God and living in paradise without any thought of evil, that is until Lucifer showed up! The arch angel fell from the heights of Heaven's splendor and took one third of the angels with him as he landed in God's creation, hell bent on the destruction of man!
The devil didn't go to the head of the house, he went to the woman who although Adam told her what God had commanded them, she wasn't sure of what He had said. All Satan did was get her to doubt God's command and they ate of the fruit God told them not to eat! This is why we as believers must know the word of God and show ourselves approved as workman rightly dividing the word of God. (II Timothy 2:15)
This never would have happened if Adam, the head of the woman would have taken a stick and run this devil out of their home because he was standing beside her listening to Satan seduce his wife! Spiritual warfare 101, the man is the head of the woman and Christ is the Head of the man. I Corinthians 11:3-10
So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasing to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate. Genesis 3:6
