The devil was blammed but Adam and eve took the punishment.

Another perspective:In the Genesis account, Adam blames Eve and Eve blames the serpent (Gen. 3:12, 13). But the most direct answer to your question (from Scripture) is actually found in the New Testament:

1 Timothy 2:14 - And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived, fell into transgression.

This doesn't mean that Eve was to "blame," for God knewSatan would try to deceive them, and that they would falter. The so-called "fall of man" was a necessary and deliberate part of God's redemptive plan for humanity, and the scenario in Eden played out just as intended.
