Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem
Genesis 3
The Fall
3 Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?”
2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, 3 but God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’”
4 “You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman. 5 “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
6 When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.
8 Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the Lord God among the trees of the garden. 9 But the Lord God called to the man, “Where are you?”
10 He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid.”
11 And he said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”
12 The man said, “The woman you put here with me—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”
13 Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?”
The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”
14 So the Lord God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this,
“Cursed are you above all livestock
and all wild animals!
You will crawl on your belly
and you will eat dust
all the days of your life.
15 And I will put enmity
between you and the woman,
and between your offspring[a] and hers;
he will crush[b] your head,
and you will strike his heel.”
16 To the woman he said,
“I will make your pains in childbearing very severe;
with painful labor you will give birth to children.
Your desire will be for your husband,
and he will rule over you.”
17 To Adam he said, “Because you listened to your wife and ate fruit from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘You must not eat from it,’
“Cursed is the ground because of you;
through painful toil you will eat food from it
all the days of your life.
18 It will produce thorns and thistles for you,
and you will eat the plants of the field.
19 By the sweat of your brow
you will eat your food
until you return to the ground,
since from it you were taken;
for dust you are
and to dust you will return.”
20 Adam[c] named his wife Eve,[d] because she would become the mother of all the living.
21 The Lord God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them. 22 And the Lord God said, “The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.” 23 So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken. 24 After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side[e] of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.

Tippy is settling in beautifully in my home. She is a really sweet dog. But, being a Working Breed, she always needs something to do. That means play, play, play all day long. She is, however, crate-trained, and sits quietly there while I do the Thread, after breakfast and a mile-long walk and training session. She has lots of toys, and I replace them when they get chewed up. There are toys all over the house, and she has a grand time with them.
Last Night, I was online and Tippy was playing with what I thought was one of her many toys. It actually was a pair of my socks, which became shredded beyond repair. Unlike her toys which are scatted about and totally available to her, the socks had been upon a blanket chest with the rest of folded laundry. That meant that Tippy had to have taken the socks by design. She didn't mistake them for a toy. She's a very smart dog! She got my attention, so her ruse was successful.
The Story of The Fall of Mankind follows a pattern which continues to this day. We can see it happening right before our eyes.
The temptor knows exactly how to arrouse questions about God's integrity and the Truth of God's Word. Eve foreshadowed the human response by adding to God's command, which played into the temptor's game. It is that kind of "reasonable" approach that leads to justifying sin. And, usually, it is so unnecessary. With all the trees in the Garden available, why did Eve have to even go to the one that was forbidden? Human Nature, I guess.
Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

From John Milton’s Epic Poem
Of man’s first disobedience,
and the fruit
Of that forbidden tree,
whose mortal taste
Brought death into the world,
and all our woe,
With loss of Eden,
till one greater Man
Restore us, and regain the blissful seat,
Sing heavenly muse
Paradise Lost
Joining in prayer, left that other site, for the Peace of Jerusalem and for our beloved America.

Joining a little late here.This reminds me of somethings I heard many years ago. Who made the first animal sacrifice in the Bible? God did, in Gen 3:21. Why did He do it? To cover Adam and Eve’s nakedness, their sin. What did God command the Israelites to do? Sacrifice animals to cover their sins. And what did Jesus do for us? The ultimate sacrifice of dying to cover our sins. It all follows thru!

Amen. That is what some theologians call “The Scarlet Thread of Redemption”. There are more examples all the way through the Bible, and we will see a lot of it in Genesis.
Thanks for opointing that out! :-)
