Adam added the words, "Neither shall you touch it." In so doing Adam changed what God had said. Remember, Eve was not even created when God commanded Adam not to eat of the tree of the knowledge of, "Good and Evil." (Notice, God does not think much of our good....he said, "For in that day you shall surely die!")

Adam introduced Eve to DOCTRINE! He added to God's commandment, put a human spin onto what was God's command

In most churches and synagogues the human spin is what we hear from the Pastor or the Rabbi. We take the word of God and make it a tool or concept to help us get through OUR lives. Often, we have a Topic and then we find scripture to help us deal with the topic. The Messiah taught God's instruction, God's commands (Can anyone tell me why Yeshuah did a better job then did Moses?) He used parables and quoted the prophets.

Moses was given God's instruction (He actually had them written before he went up the mountain) on how the Israelites were to live redeemed (It was a rhetorical question, folks!). The Apostles and the Disciples gave to us (Gentiles) God's word on how to live redeemed. Both times God required a sacrifice and both times we were saved, all of us.

It is terrible that the Christians understand that Messiah fulfilled the law and YET that is all he taught. (The word law in the paleo Hebrew means instructs or teaches.) The Messiah taught the instructions given to Moses perfectly and he did it with out sin. He was the perfect instructor who taught us the word of God without Jewish doctrine......Paul comes along and says...No the Gentiles do not have to be circumcised and the Christians said nah nah nananah! The Christians said, “you have to be born again" and the Jews said, are you nuts? satan has been rolling on the floor with hysterical laughter ever since. Both groups are right but the interpretation of the instruction was wrong!

Did Moses say the sinner’s prayer? Did King David say the sinner’s prayer; did both not have Grace?

The Jews have many doctrines and the Christians too, have many doctrines....how is God's instruction (TORAH) working with those who were given the covenants and those who were grafted in to the covenants? it would appear that satan is alive and well in doctrine because, the one new man is a mess!(?) What did satan say to EVE again?

Adam complicated the word, so Eve was challenged by the added word and the rest is history!I can Hear satan saying, "See, you touched it and you did not die"

See how very simple all of this really is....GOD did not introduce us to chaos!

I once had a pastor say to me. "The Jews rejected the Messiah" (That seems to be the mantra of most Christians) as they read the bible that the Jews wrote (amazing) Anyway, this pastor said the Jews bought all of this onto themselves. He began to tell me what is wrong with the Jews...I don't know any Christian who knows the commandments (all 613 of them) or any Christians who do the ten that the Greeks condensed down with a philosophical spin! Like wise, I have yet to meet a Jew who declares they can do all 613 commandments even the ones meant for woman and animals, duh? Okay, so the law does not save any of us! It does a very good job showing us how Adam and Eve screwed up!
God said, "Hear and Obey! Why did he give us two instructions concerning his commandments?

I have a Jewish friend who insists that the Messiah (nailed to the cross) was a nice guy! As I watch the two doctrines war over whose right, I am reminded of God's instruction: "WE WRESTLE NOT AGAINST FLESH AND BLOOD, BUT AGAINST PRINCIPALITIES, AGAINST POWERS, AGAINST THE RULERS OF THE DARKNESS OF THIS WORLD, AGAINST SPIRITUAL WICKEDNESS IN HIGH PLACES" for nearly two thousand years the "new man" is beating the hell out of each other, literally!

We all would do well to just get back to the 5 books of Moses....The problem with Eve goes on and on and on! Men have belittled women for years now! (I used to be very guilty of this, I understand the mentality that denigrates our women, trust me!) This is not my intent to put women in a category. I am merely recalling what was done. God said, " It is not good for man to be alone" Think about that, here is man and God, what else could he possibly need? He gave to us his beauty in the form of Woman. That is the real deal!

Moses taught God's instruction and so did Messiah. God is so repetitious! I simply love how he gently taps onto our hearts his TORAH and truth!

Be blessed
