great deal of pleasure, because we
are glad to be able to say that our
forefather, though disobedient, was
not totally depraved, and was not
without "a line of saving grace
1t cannot be alleged that Eve did
not have guilty knowledge of her
disObedience, because she said to her
beguiler: eve may eat of the trees
of the garden; but the fruit of the
tree which is in the midst of the gar
den, God hath said, We shall not eat
Of it, neither shall We touch it, lest
We die" Still, an examination of the
sacred volume will disclose the fact
that Eve was never personally COM
manded by God not to eat of the
forbidden fruit"
The Bible account of this unhappy
chapter is as follows:
and the Lord God took the man
and put him in the garden of Eden,
to dress it and to keep it.
''And the Lord God commanded
the man saying: Of every tree Of
the garden thou mayest freely eat
But Of the tree Of the knowledge
of good and evil, thou shalt not eat
of it; for the day thou eatest thereof
thou shalt surely die
1t will thus be seen that this COM
mand, which has brought so much
woe into the world, was given unto
the man and not unto the woman,
An investigation will show that it
was given to Adam before Eve was
created, and if it was ever repeated
to Eve, Moses, acting as the divine
emanuensis, failed to record it, or it
may have been omitted and lost in
the various translatiOns through
which the Bible has passed.
It is significant in this connection
that God, in rebuking Adam and Eve
for their disobedience, he said to
Eve: what is this that thou hast
dOne?" but when He comes to Adam
He repeats the admonition that was
given him, as will be seen in the
quotation: Because thou hast
hardened unto the voice of thy wife
and hast eaten of the tree of which
L commanded thee, saying, Thou
shalt not eat of it,
God did not bring this accusation
against the woman, so we conclude
that Ewes sin was not as sinful as
Adams.
Ewes temptation must have been
very great. Her tempter in this chap
ter is said to have been more subtle
than any beast of the field, and most
commentators agree that it was Sa-
tan, because in other parts of the
Bible Satan is called a serpent.
Christ was subjected to the same
temptation but resisted it, but He
was superhuman, but how many 9TH
ers have done so? How many, like
Eve, have been beguiled, and like
her have fallen?
Brother Caldwell says that when
God rebuked Adam he did not lay
his sin on Eve, but he simply stated
a fact. Nor did Eve lay her sin on
Adam. She likewise stated a fact
when saying: ''The serpent beguiled
me, and I did eat" She did not at
tempt denial She did not at
tempt to shift the responsibility of
her sin onto the shoulders Of her
husband. She did as so many wom-
en- have done since-shouldered the
whole blame. She could have said
that the command was never given
to her, but that it was given to her
husband before her creation, but she
preferred to tell the truth and suffer
the consequences.
It was a sad performance, but we
are disposed to believe the woman
suffered the greater temptation and
the greater punishment, and if there
