Genesis Chapter 3
Adam and Eve - The Fall of Man
1 Now the snake was craftiest animal the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any of the garden's trees’?”
2 She replied, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, 3 but God said, ‘Not to eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and not to touch it, or we would die.’”
4 “You will not certainly die,” the serpent replied. 5 “For God knows that when you eat from it you will become wise, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
6 When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was edible and looked good, and also great for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave Adam some, who was with her, and he ate it. 7 Then they both became wise, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together to cover themselves.
