Verse 1, NOW the serpent [from its hiss, from H5172, to whisper a (magic) spell, to learn from experience, divine, enchanter] was more subtle (prudent or wise) than any beast of the field (AS SPREAD OUT, NOTICE THE EXPANSION) which the Lord God had made (appointed, one of his messengers - Rev. 12:9).
The serpent asked the congregation a very important question: "HATH ELOHIYM SAID, ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?"
Verse 2, the sensual soul of the woman ACQUIRED the knowledge by experience to perceive that ELOHIYM had not forbid it.
Verse 3, the Lord God, however, had forbid any eating from the fruit of the tree of knowledge and proposed that the result would be death. ISN'T TRUTH THE AUTHOR OF LIFE?
Verse 4, the great teacher of experience insisted that the fear of death was a lie.
Verse 5, with wisdom the eyes of your understanding are opened.
Verse 6, it was good for food, pleasant to the eyes (eyesalve), and gave wisdom so she ate and shared this with adam. WAS THIS WRONG? Hosea 4:6 says, "My people are destroyed (to be dumb or silent) for lack of knowledge. Genesis 3:6, the tree was desired to make one wise. READ Proverbs 4:5-9; 16:16. Be wise as serpents (Matt. 10:16). But we speak wisdom I Cor. 2:6-7. One of the seven spirits of God is wisdom (Is. 11:2). Jesus had wisdom. Jesus was filled with wisdom (Matt. 13:54). Luke 2:40, Acts 6:3, choose men with wisdom. One of the spirit gifts is wisdom (I Cor. 12:8). All the treasures of wisdom and knowledge (in Christ) (Col. 2:3). James 1:5, if you lack, ask for wisdom. We speak the wisdom (I Cor. 2:7).
Verse 7, they immediately knew that religion had left them wretrched, miserable, poor, blind and naked (Rev. 3:17).
Verse 8, they recognized the voice of the Lord God walking in the cool of the day (the time of shadows) and they hid themselves for fear of condemnation among the other trees (in the garden of Elohiym, Ez. 31:8).
Verse 9, where was adam?
Verse 10, he heard the voice, he was afraid, he was naked and he hid.
Verse 11, the Lord God recognized adam's newly found wisdom (who told you that I haven't covered you?).
Verse 12-13, the man blamed the woman (his nature); the woman blamed the serpent (her experience).
Verse 14-19, the Lord God gives the bitter curse of condemnation, to the voice of experience (serpent), I'll make sure you are viewed as lower than a well digger named Bildad (the shuhite) - now eat my dust. To the woman, the pain of birthing another congregation, (you'll think twice about teaching others the message of life); to the man his work (you'll never work in this town again!).
Verse 20, then adam asid, EVE (to show or declare) is the mother of all living (the bond of the congregation).
Verse 21, the Lord God said I'll declare that you are only a beast. You will never be seen as Gods (Elohiym).
Verse 22, man as a Lord, God, CAN PARTAKE OF THE TREE OF LIFE.
Verse 23, the Lord God THREW THEM OUT OF THE CONGREGATION.
Verse 24, to keep adam from the Tree of Life, the Lord God blocked the entrance to his kingdom with imaginary figures with imaginary swords of fire.
I'M NOT LOOKING TO GET BACK INTO THE BONDAGE OF RELIGION; WHERE THE SPIRIT OF ELOHIYM IS THERE IS LIBERTY.
THIS DAY I AM IN PARADISE WITH CHRIST.
