Me thinks you are putting words in his mouth, Judy.
Had they have continued to eat of the tree of life, they would not
have died, their mortality being the potential to die in the absence of the
sustenance supplied by the tree of life: "'And now, lest he put out his hand and
take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever' -- so the LORD God
banished him from the Garden . . ."

JD your dylexia has kicked in again. We who are
born through procreation are created in the "image" of the
first Adam. They were here first already....
and the tree of life is what they were encouraged to eat from.
to
say they were walking in death right then is pure
unwarranted speculation; why would a God og life create them
in death?
Also, there is evidence that Adam and Eve were created just like
us -- which includes the fact that they were created
"mortal," hence, the The Tree of Life , in the
garden.

So Cain and Abel were children # 1
and #2. and when Cain killed
Able -- who was he afraid of -- I mean, where
did those people come from? I personally believe that Adam and
Eve were not the only people created. But that is not a
popular opinion. If we go with the standard opin
-- Cain was afraid of his own people!!!!

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.

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. ;-)

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

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.
