Chapter 3
The First Sin and its punishment
The serpent convinced the woman that if she ate the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden then she would not die but she would become wise like god knowing good from evil. So the woman took some of the fruit and ate it and gave some of it to the man. Then their eyes were opened and the realized that they were naked so they took fig leaves and made loincloths.
Then God came back so they hid because they were naked. God called out to them
"Where are you," the man and his wife came out from behind the bushes.
"I was afraid because I was naked so I hid." That's when God got mad.
"Have you eaten from the forbidden tree!" he said. The man had so he blamed on his wife and then the woman blamed it on the serpent.
So god punishes them each with different punishments.
Serpent- took away his legs, cursed him, humans will hate him and snakes should bite humans.
Woman- having children will be painful.
Man- to eat you has to work for it.
Now that the man knew the difference between good and evil God knew that he also might eat from the tree of life and live forever so god kicked them out of the Garden of Eden.
