Genesis Chapter 3 God creation audio Bible

Genesis 3:1 says that the serpent was the most cunning among all the animals that God had created. It knew that the Lord had commanded Adam to eat fruit from all of the trees in the garden except for the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

So, the serpent decided to tempt Adam’s wife. The woman claimed that God had forbidden her from eating of the tree lest she be killed. The serpent, however, countered her belief and told her that the fruit would not kill her, but give her knowledge equal to that of God. The woman ate the fruit and, afterwards, convinced Adam to do so as well.Immediately after Adam had eaten the forbidden fruit, they noticed that they were naked and sewed leaves together to cover their bodies. Later, when they heard God walking in the garden, they hid themselves from Him in the bushes. When God called to them, asking where they were, Adam replied that they were hiding because of their nudity. When He asked how they came to know they were nude, they told the Lord of how the woman had been tricked by the serpent, and Adam by the woman.
