Gen 3

The fall of man. This one has to be short today, I have a lot to do. It is pretty simple when you look at this literally. Adam and Eve are walking through the garden. They run up on a serpent and it talks to the wife. Adam is still close by but doesn't stop anything. After they discover that they are naked God ask Adam about it and he puts it off on his wife. She then puts it off on the serpent. The serpent is cursed, Eve is cursed, and Adam is cursed. But the curses all glorify God in some way. Through Eve having pains in child birth, Jesus was glorified because he was then able to be like man and be born through that process. Through man working the soil he was able to provide sacrifices to God and because thorn and thistle grew Jesus was able to tell a parable and depict what sharing your faith is. The serpent is the most interesting curse. This is the first prophesy that we see of Jesus defeating satan in the Bible.
