Adam and Eve were allowed to eat all fruits and vegetables from the garden of Eden.
What is the weight of Adam and Eve?
They were 15 feet tall. Their jaw was 15 inches. Plus their head was so big that they could fit our head in their mouth!!!
The Bible does not say how big or tall they were so we have no way of knowing
Is it true that Adam and Eve had 56 children?
Could the Congo basin be the Garden of Eden?
-----------------------
No. Genesis 2:14 says that the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers flowed out of the Garden of Eden, which means that the garden was in Asia. Genesis 2:13 says that a river flowed out of the garden to water the land of Ethiopia, which means that the garden was in the horn of Africa, far from the Congo. Verses 13 and 14 contradict each other, perhaps indicating that the source knew little about the world outside Palestine. Leon R. Kass (The Beginning of Wisdom: Reading Genesis) says that the Garden of Eden is a purely mythic place and should be regarded as such.
Was Cain conceived in the garden of eden?
The evidence of the Genesis account suggests that Cain was conceived [Genesis 4] after the "serpent incident" and Adam and Eve's subsequent banishment from the Garden of Eden [chapter 3].
Did snakes have legs when Adam and Eve were made?
No. The story of the snake in the Garden of Eden is a remnant of early animistic beliefs that are still to be found in indigenous beliefs, such as the Australian Dreamtime.
Leon R. Kass (The Beginning of Wisdom: Reading Genesis) asks us to think of the snake allegorically and as an external embodiment of certain essentially human, rational capacities. The author used the snake to tell us about ourselves and our own human weaknesses.
Were Adam and Eve the first slaves?
Assuming of course that Adam and Eve existed (and there is no extra-biblical evidence of that) the biblical narrative does not claim that they were enslaved at any point. The earliest mention we have of slaves comes from the story of Abraham, where it is mentioned that he had slaves/servants (the Hebrew word is ambiguous). However, it does not seem that these were the first slaves because nobody is surprised that he has slaves.
ANOTHER ANSWER:
Yes... they sold themselves [and all of their children; the succeeding generations of mankind] into slavery [bondage] to "sin," to the "god of this world" when they disobeyed the Commandments of God [the definition of "sin" - I John 3:4] and "chose another god to worship and obey" [thou shalt have no other gods before Me].
And they coveted what wasn't theirs... and they dishonored their Creator, which took His name in vain... and they took [stole] what wasn't theirs... and they denied [lied about] and refused to take responsibility for, and repent of their sins, afterward... blaming it on someone else [even blaming God, Himself].
"The Law is good, then. The trouble is not with the Law but with ME, because I AM SOLD INTO SLAVERY, with SIN as my master." (Rom.7:14 NLT New Living Translation)
"...am I suggesting that the Law of God is evil? Of course not! The Law is not sinful, but it was the Law that SHOWED ME MY SIN. I would never have known that coveting was wrong if the Law had not said, 'Do not covet.'" (Rom.7:7 NLT)
All of mankind is a slave to something or someone... and has been in slavery to sin and its god since the Garden of Eden. Since then, our Creator has taken steps to redeem His creation from their slavery to sin, so that men may choose WHICH GOD they will SERVE.
"...Thou shalt worship the LORD thy God, and Him only shalt THOU SERVE." (Matt.4:10)
"All those who want to be My disciples must come and follow Me, because MY SERVANTS must be where I AM. And if they follow Me, the Father will honor them." (John 12:26 NLT)
"The Kingdom of God is not a matter of what we eat or drink, but of living a life of Goodness and Peace and Joy in the Holy Spirit. If YOU SERVE Christ with this ATTITUDE, you will please God. And other people will approve of you, too." (Rom.14:17-18 NLT)
There are two kinds of "slavery"... the physical kind and the spiritual kind. Some men are masters, physically, and most men are their servants. But all men are enslaved, spiritually, in bondage to sin; unless their Creator sets them free - to SERVE HIM!
"...'You are Truly My disciples IF YOU KEEP OBEYING MY TEACHINGS. And you will know the Truth, and the Truth will SET YOU FREE." (John 8:31-32 NLT)
"I no longer call you SERVANTS, because a Master doesn't confide in His servants. Now YOU ARE MY FRIENDS, since I have told you everything the Father told Me. You didn't choose Me, I chose you... I Command you to love each other." (John 15:15-17 NLT)
"So Christ has REALLY SET US FREE. Now make sure that you stay free, and don't get tied up again in slavery to the Law." (Gal.5:1 NLT)
Where do fur coats originate from?

No position is mentioned.
Adam by Auguste Rodin. What do you think Adam is experiencing as he is coming to life?
This is the perfect question about art because here lies one of the major qualities of art. Most important to art is the question what does each individual viewer think and feel about a work of art.
I am looking for a play called underneath the apple tree a comedy about Adam and Eve?
Not sure there is a play ~but~ there is a song crafted by Michael Franks on his "Tiger In the Rain" album. It's portrays a modern day Adams & Eve ... lounging under their apple tree. It's a wonderful tune that is worthy of a play!
What caused lucifer to fall from heaven?
Lucifer's initial rebellion was before the Creation of Man. It is briefly described in Isaiah 14 and Ezekiel 28. Jesus mentions He saw Satan cast down to the Earth for the 1st time.
Later, at the end of the Reign of Man, Satan will be cast out of Heaven permanently or for the 2nd time.
Revelation 12:9New King James Version (NKJV)9 So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
Did lucifer eat the forbidden fruit?
Lucifer did not have a body... and so he could not have eaten anything!
We were all created as spirits, before we came to Earth. Me, you, Lucifer, Jesus... a big, fun spirit-party! Lucifer rebelled against God, and was cast out, becoming whom we know as Satan. Thus, he remained in the same estate - spirit only, without a body. Earth was put together, and a male body was made from the earth. A spirit was put into it - and, ta-daa! - Adam was "born." Another body and spirit were put together and there was Eve. They had bodies, and thus could eat fruits and be cast out from gardens... which Satan never could, and never will be able to...
If God walked regularly with Adam why was Adam not killed Exodus 33v20?
Answer
The only according to scriptural accounts of God physically with Adam is in Genesis.
Genesis 2:7 - Then the LORD God formed the man out of the dust from the ground and breathed the breath of life into his nostrils, and the man became a living being.
Genesis 2:15 - The LORD God took the man and placed him in the garden of Eden to work it and watch over it.
Genesis 2:21 - So the LORD God caused a deep sleep to come over the man, and he slept. God took one of his ribs and closed the flesh at that place. 22 Then the LORD God made the rib He had taken from the man into a woman and brought her to the man.
Genesis 3:8-9 - Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden at the time of the evening breeze, and they hid themselves from the LORD God among the trees of the garden. 9 So the LORD God called out to the man and said to him, "Where are you?"
Genesis 3:21 The LORD God made clothing out of skins for Adam and his wife, and He clothed them.
Here we have the LORD God forming the man, breathing into his nostrils, leading him, teaching him, performing surgery, forming a wife for the man, walking in the garden, seeking man, speaking to man, and forming clothing for man. All of these are very personal acts.
The LORD continued to make physical interactions with mankind in the Old Testament [for instance, He appeared as "The Angel of the LORD" to Hagar in Genesis 16:7-13 and Gideon in Judges 6:11-23 and as a man to Jacob in Genesis 32:28 [Note that Jacob was surprised in Genesis 32:30 to have actually see God face to face and live.]
In the account with Moses in Exodus 33:20, where God said "said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live", it is very important to look closer at Moses' request.
Moses in Exodus 33:18 asked "Please, let me see Your glory." This is not merely requested for God's presense but to see the complete fullness of the Godhead. The fullness of the Godhead, God's glory, would be unrestricted and
because His nature is all-powerful, sovereign, holy and just it would naturally be dangerous to sinful man. This is why the LORD said no one could see his face and live.
Answer
When God walked with Adam & Eve, they had not commited sin. The God I believe in cannot look upon sin. And we are born into sin because of the wrong Adam and Eve did. Not doing as God had commanded. Being born into sin is to be born into flesh. When they were cast from the Garden Of Eden that ended the visual relationship with men of flesh.
Exodus 33:20
33:20 And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.
Can God be seen? see link
Answer
Maybe Adam & Eve did not die because God showed them not His face, but His behind?
Exodus 33:22 And it shall come to pass, while my glory passeth by, that I will put thee in a clift of the rock, and will cover thee with my hand while I pass by: 33:23 And I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen.
