The second act of the biblical story in which Adam and Eve
did not believe God and sinned when tempted by the devil.
Di
ff
ey, Dan. (2020). Departure from Wisdom in The Beginning of Wisdom. “The Fall”

10. The LORD God commanded the man, saying, “You
may surely eat of every tree of the garden, but of the
tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not
eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely
die.”
(Gen 2:16–17 ESV)

11. Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast
of the
fi
eld that the LORD God had made. He said to
the woman, “Did God actually say, ‘You shall not eat of
any tree in the garden’?”
(Gen 3:1 ESV)

12. And the woman said to the serpent, “We may eat of
the fruit of the trees in the garden, but God said, ‘You
shall not eat of the fruit of the tree that is in the midst
of the garden, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.’”
But the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely
die. For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes
will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing
good and evil.”
(Gen 3:2–5 ESV)

13. So when the woman saw that the tree was good for
food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that
the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took
of its fruit and ate, and she also gave some to her
husband who was with her, and he ate.
(Gen 3:6 ESV)

14. Then the eyes of both were opened, and they knew
that they were naked. And they sewed
fi
g leaves
together and made themselves loincloths. And they
heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the
garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his
wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD
God among the trees of the garden.
(Gen 3:7–8 ESV)

15. But the LORD God called to the man and said to him,
“Where are you?” And he said, “I heard the sound of
you in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was
naked, and I hid myself.” He said, “Who told you that
you were naked? Have you eaten of the tree of which I
commanded you not to eat?”
(Gen 3:9–11 ESV)

16. The man said, “The woman whom you gave to be with
me, she gave me fruit of the tree, and I ate.” Then the
LORD God said to the woman, “What is this that you
have done?” The woman said, “The serpent deceived
me, and I ate.”
(Gen 3:12–13 ESV)

17. The LORD God said to the serpent, “Because you
have done this, cursed are you above all livestock and
above all beasts of the
fi
eld; on your belly you shall go,
and dust you shall eat all the days of your life. I will put
enmity between you and the woman, and between
your o
ff
spring and her o
ff
spring; he shall bruise your
head, and you shall bruise his heel.”
(Gen 3:14–15 ESV)

18. To the woman he said, “I will surely multiply your pain
in childbearing; in pain you shall bring forth children.
Your desire shall be contrary to your husband, but he
shall rule over you.”
(Gen 3:16 ESV)

19. To Adam he said, “Because you have listened to the
voice of your wife and have eaten of the tree of which I
commanded you, ‘You shall not eat of it,’ cursed is the
ground because of you; in pain you shall eat of it all
the days of your life; thorns and thistles it shall bring
forth for you; and you shall eat the plants of the
fi
eld.
By the sweat of your face you shall eat bread, till you
return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; for
you are dust, and to dust you shall return.”
(Gen 3:17–19 ESV)

20. The man called his wife’s name Eve, because she
was the mother of all living. And the LORD God made
for Adam and for his wife garments of skins and
clothed them. Then the LORD God said, “Behold, the
man has become like one of us in knowing good and
evil. Now, lest he reach out his hand and take also of
the tree of life and eat, and live forever
(Gen 3:20–22 ESV)

21. The LORD God sent him out from the garden of Eden
to work the ground from which he was taken. He
drove out the man, and at the east of the garden of
Eden he placed the cherubim and a
fl
aming sword
that turned every way to guard the way to the tree of
life.
(Gen 3:23–24 ESV)

59. Just as sin came into the world through one man, and
death through sin, and so death spread to all men
because all sinned— for sin indeed was in the world
before the law was given, but sin is not counted where
there is no law. Yet death reigned from Adam to

the transgression of Adam, who was a type of the one
who was to come.
