The question You should be asking is if the Fruit of life is really an actual Fruit.

Here we go again, where was it said the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil is a fruit of life, erhn?

He gained the trust of his wife eve!lol.
He knew exactly the implication of what he did.
He knew the fruit was poison that will result to death,but because of his wife,his love and role model ask him to eat it,he did out of love.

lyrical:

Hmm, not quite a good enough answer, just a fair. The serpent had already told him, eating the fruit, will make him be same like God, so he wasnt really getting or gaining knowledge, as he had already been given the knowledge before eating the fruit.am gain or get, from eating the fruit nah?

Adam did not EAT any FRUIT. Moses wasn't born yet when he described Genesis 1 so you have to trust God in the form of God who was before Genesis 1 to explain the fruit and eat etc....

What a man eats does not defile him.....Christ said so Adam could not have been defiled by just EATING....per say....it wasn't a fruit.

Just my two cents....lol

It opened his eyes of understand to the spell was under which is same spell animals are under the makes them nakéd and comfortable with it. Suddenly he needed shelter cos nakednēss crept in and you and I are still in that line today. Still feel the need to cover ourselves.

C'mon now Goshen360, whether the fruit is metaphor or not metaphor, Adam did eat a frigging fruit, so aside from the promised and/or guaranteed death, what other main thing, in one word and preferrably supported with a scriptural verse, really did Adam gain or get, from eating of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil?

FOLYKAZE:

Yes FOLYKAZE, Adam became a deity, as it were and so that's a fact and truth because man became god the moment soon after eating fruit, but aside from the reportedly gained morality, or the promised and/or guaranteed death, what other main thing, in one word and preferrably supported with a scriptural verse, really did Adam gain or get, from eating of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil?

Since you are asking what Adam alone gained, I think it should be Patriarch Gen 1:17

FOLYKAZE:

I am sorry, I actually mean, what is it exactly both of them gained aside death, morality, deity, patriarchy/matriarchy etcetera.

I like and appreciate how you tried supporting your answer with a bible verse. It makes the answer look more credible. Thank you.

He thought he'll get independence, but never in the real sense of independence, did he get independence. For a moment there, I thought you got the answer. Phew!

No, I never started playing around, you were close to getting the answer but you quickly went off track. If you manage to get the answer, I doubt you'll have a bible verse to hand out to support your answer, but it doesnt mean you wont win the prize giving the answer without a supporting bible verse

He gained 'Nothing'
But lost everything.

ichuka:
He gained 'Nothing'
But lost everything.

"For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, (i.e. the dead know nothing)
neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten."
- Ecclesiastes 9:5

I love your tenacity, your perseverance, you have a fighting spirit. Where are you based? If I cant personally deliver the won prize, then I'll like to alternatively get it over to you

You must admit, I edged you towards the answer with my reply, that you were close to getting the answer but you quickly went off track. Yes, Adam the dead man walking, lost everything at the expense of gaining nothing and knowing nothing.

I am really pleased, it is you who got the answer and won the prize. Well done, my dear sir.

Apart from death presay, Adam got the ability to do evil.

Genesis 3:22
And the Lord God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil:

The tree gave them that knowledge of evil

Genesis 2:9
And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

B4 then Adam was child like with reactions,in that he could only do & think good no matter the situation.

When you remember that Jesus said we are to be like Children.
It was with reference of being just good.

Matthew 18:3
And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
