ADAM TOLD EVE WHAT GOD SAID, AND NEVER DIRECTLY TO BOTH OF THEM

Adam told Eve what Adam told Eve God had told Adam, which is kinda odd since "[url=https://classic.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis+1%3A27-31&version=KJV]God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them[/url]".

Now, you might be tempted to quote [url=https://classic.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis+2%3A21-22&version=KJV]how a deep sleep befell Adam, and Eve was a rib[/url], but be prepared to be told how ignorant that is, for Eve would easily have written how Adam came out from between a woman's thighs if we'd been priviledged to read her more knowledgeable version of events and not that ignorant Adam's we unquestionably read.

Stop lying, lol.

You are confused and you know you are, but you must keep knocking and asking and seeking with all your heart and soul and mind and being until your eyes open and you find, or you will stop questioning and just ignorantly believe.

The choice, my good sir, is entirely your's, and the Holy Spirit that is within the Kingdom of God that is within you is your guide. Amen.

Actually, no, GENESIS 1 VS 2, AND 1 VS 3 will not tell me the answer, though they might give you an answer you are content with. But that's perfectly okay, for as a very wise man once said, "the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and to the poor the gospel is preached". And not all are poor, as we know.

Only those who will not learn are satisfied with the familiar.

A wise person might suggest that you abandon your preconceived beliefs and ideas and become as a child in order to be born again, but I guess he'd be far too wise for some.

ALRIGHT AUNTY . I LOVE FACE TO FACE CNSTRUCTIVE ARGUEMENT. THEY WERE SAYING ADAM AND EVE WERE INSTRUCTED BY GOD NT TO EAT THAT PARTICULAR APPLE. ADAM STAYED YEARS ABI NA MONTHS BE4 EVE WAS CREATED, AND IF YES THAT MEANS ADAM WAS TOLD ABT THE APPLE BE4 THE CREATION OF EVE. THEY ALL SAID AM WRNG THAT IT WAS WRITTEN IN THE BIBLE THAT GOD INSTRUCTD THEM BOTH. IF GOD INSTRUCTD THEM BOTH, IT SIMPLY MEANS ADAM MIGHT HAVE EATEN THE APPLE YEARS AGO UNKNWINGLY (THEY SAID ITS A LIE THAT I SHOULD SEARCH IT IN THE BIBLE). AT LAST IT WAS CLEAR THAT EVE WASN'T THERE WHEN THE INSTRUCTION WAS GIVEN.

Both male and female created he them at the same time, so I don't understand where you got your "ADAM STAYED YEARS ABI NA MONTHS BE4 EVE WAS CREATED", and it is clearly written that God instructed Adam and afterwards created Eve who was not there when Adam was instructed.

Still, the myth is not for believing, but for gaining understanding, which I suggest you continue to ask and knock and seek to gain.

God didn't want to talk to every Dickson and Harryson, so the information will be passed from generation to generation. By the time God created Adam there was no Eve, it was after Adam has completed the first assignment that God decided to make an helper for him! smiley

If u see as a pastor was arguing with me on how GOD instructd both of them together. I ask am where they created thesame day ? He said no. I ask am again how many days was ADAM be4 the creation of EVE ? He said he is many years old. Then i tell am say if ADAM was many years older than EVE , then he was eventually told abt the apple be4 eve. He then told me to quote where it was said in the bible that ADAM was told first. I told him if ADAM WASN'T TOLD BE4 THE EMERGENCE OF EVE THEN ADAM MUST HAVE EATEN THE FRUIT UNKNOWINGLY . HE WAS STILL ARGUING BE4 I FOUND GENESIS 1 VS 2 "WHERE GOD TOLD ADAM ABOUT THE APPLE) THEN 1 VS 3 (GOD TALK OF ADAMS LONELINESS). EXCELLENT PROVE

It's simple and logical my friend, if God didn't tell Adam about the fruit of course he could have eaten of it during all those days nah, after all he wasn't FASTING automatically he must be the one who passed on the information to Eve.
Thanks sir! smiley

Literally, no. Its mythology.

The people who brought us the Bible used to believe the following.

budaatum:

Mighty Jupiter was the supreme deity of the Roman pantheon, a god of the sky and heavens and the champion of the Roman people. His symbols were the oak tree and eagle.

The supreme deity of the Roman pantheon, mighty Jupiter was a god of sky and thunder whose symbols were the oak tree and eagle. He ruled as the dominant member of a triumvirate called the Capitoline Triad, which included his consort Juno and daughter Minerva. Jupiter bore many similarities to Zeus, the king of the Greek deities from whom he was adapted.

Unlike Zeus, however, Jupiter was explicitly linked to a specific political entity—Rome. From the great temple erected in his honor on the Capitoline Hill in Rome, Jupiter presided over the state and its ever-expanding empire. As a result, the Romans emphasized the worship of Jupiter above all other gods. Jupiter’s blessings were thought to secure their victories and maintain hegemony over their rivals. Worship of Jupiter was formalized by the Roman state over the course of its existence.

What is known of Jupiter’s mythos came not through the narratives in which he plays a role, but from the ways in which his worship was observed by the Romans. Like other figures in Roman mythology, Jupiter was believed to be a critical actor in Roman history. Accordingly, his nature and attributes transformed in order to keep up with broader historical changes in the Roman state. By the end of the first century BCE, Jupiter’s centrality to the state was eclipsed by cults devoted to the worship of deified emperors.

Etymology
In Latin, the name “Jupiter” was usually rendered as Iūpiter or Iuppiter (the character “j” was not a part of ancient Latin alphabet, and was added in the Middle Ages). The name stemmed from two roots. One was the Proto Indo-European word dyeu- (the same root for the name “Zeus”!), meaning “shining thing,” “sky,” or “day” (as in the Latin for day dies); the other was pater, a word shared by Greek and Latin that means “father.” In keeping with these naming conventions, Jupiter was sometimes called Diespiter or Dispiter. Additionally, Zeus was called Zeu Pater in Greek, and Sanskrit speakers used the term Dyaus pitar (father of heavens) to refer to the sky god. This all points an archetypal “sky father” deep in the history of Indo-European-speaking people, whose identity was localized by the cultures that splintered off over time.1

Jupiter was known by a number of epithets. For bringing victory, he was Iuppiter Elicius, or “Jupiter who brings forth,” and for summoning lightning, he was Iuppiter Fulgur, or “lightning Jupiter.” For bringing light and enlightenment to all things, he was Iuppiter Lucetius, or “Jupiter of the light,” as well as Iuppiter Caelestis, or “Jupiter of the heavens.” Above all, he was Iuppiter Optimus Maximus: “Jupiter, the best and greatest.”

Attributes
As the god of the sky, Jupiter commanded lightning, thunder, and storms. Like Zeus, he wielded lightning bolts as weapons. Befitting his role as king of the gods, Jupiter was commonly depicted sitting on a throne and holding a royal scepter and staff.

Rather than taking an active part in battles, however, Jupiter was imagined to oversee and control them. More than any other deity, Jupiter held the fate of the Roman state in the balance. To appease him, Romans offered sacrifice and took sacred oaths in his honor. The faithfulness with which they made sacrificial offerings and kept their oaths informed Jupiter’s bearing. The Romans came to believe that the success of their Mediterranean empire could be attributed to their unique devotion to Jupiter.

By way of the eagle, Jupiter also guided the taking of the auspices, the practice of divination whereby augurs tried to decipher omens and predict the future by observing the flight of birds (words such as “auspicious” and “inauspicious” come from this practice). Because the eagle was Jupiter’s sacred animal, the Romans believed that the bird’s behavior communicated his will. Omens divined through the behavior of eagles were considered to be the most revealing.

Family
Jupiter was the son of Saturn—the god of the sky who preceded Jupiter—and Ops (or Opis), goddess of the earth and growth. His brothers were Neptune, god of the sea, and Pluto, god of the underworld and wealth (metals, the basis of Roman coinage and wealth, were found underground). His sisters included Ceres, a fertility goddess who controlled the growth of grains, Vesta, goddess of hearth and home, and Juno, a maternal goddess associated with marriage, family, domestic tranquility, and the moon.

Jupiter was married to his sister Juno, who served as the Roman counterpart to Hera. Among their children were Mars, the god of war that played a substantial role in the founding of Rome, and Bellona, a goddess of war. Additional children included Vulcan, the god of fire, metalworking, and the forge, and Juventus, a youthful goddess who oversaw the transition from childhood to adulthood and was associated with invigoration and rejuvenation.

Though the Roman mythic corpus lacked the stories of marital strife that so often defined Zeus and Hera’s relationship, it was clear that Jupiter was unfaithful to Juno. Anecdotal tales told of Jupiter’s many infidelities and the children that resulted from them. With Maia, the goddess of earth and fertility (who may have lent her name to the Roman month Maius, or May), Jupiter had Mercury, the messenger god of commerce, merchants, sailing, and travel. With Dione, he sired Venus, goddess of love and sexual desire (although other stories had her emerging from sea foam, like the Greek Aphrodite). With his sister Ceres, Jupiter had Proserpine, an important cultic figure associated with cycles of decay and rebirth, just as Persephone was for the Greeks. Finally, with Metis, whom he raped, Jupiter had Minerva.

Mythology
By and large, Roman mythology lacked a rich narrative tradition. As such, little exists in the way of epic stories explaining the order of the universe and the origins of humankind. This is also true of Jupiter, whose mythos was built not around stories that featured him as a main character, but around the ways that Romans observed their chief deity and explained his place in their storied history.

Origins
Jupiter’s origins were largely identical to the tales of Zeus’ creation. Before Jupiter, Saturn reigned supreme as the god of the sky and the universe. Of course, it had not always been that way. Before Saturn, his father Caelus (meaning “heavens”) ruled, but Saturn overthrew his father and took control of the heavens for himself. After Saturn married Ops and impregnated her, he learned of a prophecy foretelling his downfall at the hands of one of his children. To prevent the usurper from seeing life, he swallowed the first five children that sprang from Ops’ womb. When the last child finally emerged, Ops hid him away and gave Saturn a rock dressed in swaddling instead. An unsuspecting Saturn devoured the rock whole.

What followed was the worst case of indigestion in the history of mythology. Unable to digest the rock, Saturn regurgitated it, along with the five children he had swallowed—Ceres, Juno, Neptune, Pluto, and Vesta. Jupiter, meanwhile, had been plotting his father’s imminent demise. With the help of his brothers and sisters, he defeated Saturn and took control of the cosmos.

Jupiter would later find himself in the same position as his father, Saturn. After raping and impregnating Metis, Jupiter was seized with the fear that his own unborn son might overthrow him. To avoid such a fate, Jupiter swallowed Metis along with her unborn child. Much to Jupiter’s surprise, the child did not die, but continued to grow until it burst from his forehead and into the world. That child was Minerva, the goddess of wisdom, forethought, and strategic warfare; she eventually became a part of the ruling Capitoline Triad.
