I hate to tell you this B but the children generally come NINE
Months AFTER the FACT!
Blainerb: Hmm, let's see, chapter three of Genesis ends with
the couple being driven out of the paradisiacal garden, then chapter 4 begins as
follows:
"And Adam knew Eve his wife, and she
conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the
Lord."
Sounds like the fun began AFTER leaving the garden!!!! But no
timetable is given.

Blainerb: Ha! I agree, it was a good commandment!
But why did they not have children until they were 1) changed
into mortal beings, and 2) forced out of the garden?

I wasn't there Blaine. If you don't like it, complain to
God. He ordered it, not me. I do, however, think it was a
great idea. One of the easiest commands to keep. ;-)

Are you saying Adam and Eve were capable of having sex prior to the
Fall?? What sacrilege is this??

I think you might have missed something, Blaine. There is
no reason to think that Judy would not have been here if there had
been no fall. The command to "Be fruitful and multiply" came
prior to the fall. See Genesis 1:28. Terry

Blainerb: You seem to be forgetting how wonderful you as
a daughter of God are, Judy. Without Adam and Eve's partaking
of the forbidden fruit, none of us including your wonderful
self would even be here--Adam and Eve would just be
lounging around in their perfect little paradise, never knowing good
from evil and not even caring. But they would be
eternally pure and goody-good righteous. Is that what you
think the Lord really wanted?

The trees in the garden DaveH are
the two kinds of wisdom. The tree of life is "pure,
peaceable, and full of good fruit" and this is the tree God wanted
His creation to eat from. The other tree - the one the
serpent was promoting - is earthly, sensual, and demonic. So
take your pick. One leads to life and the other to
death.
