Laws And Nature

 

I knew at a young age. Due to being raised by the righteous bad motherf***ers! And the white male cops in my neighborhood. I would have said to that naḥash, 

Okay,... Let me tell my brother what you told me and if he says it's alright,then we will eat it. Makes sense to me, .... I'll be right back.😊

I would have not eaten it without man being present and I would have never eaten it and then gave it to man.

 Initially, when I first really read this in the scriptures. I was shocked at Eve's response to the naḥash. I assumed everyone knew not to do that, I would have never done what eve did. It was instilled in me to not be in direct contrast with authority.

 I never thought it was something I needed to stand against. And so, the man ruling was never an issue for me because as a female having my own authority as a female is in the same autonomy.

 It's how the creator intended it to be.

 What did God intend for the role of man to be?

 A man not only has the responsibility to lead, protect, and provide for his family, but he also has an innate ability to fulfill this duty. Men are easier to tolerate stress, make important decisions, have strength and endurance.

Mankind is to rule, as a steward, so that the creations of the world (including animals, plants and resources) are fruitful and multiply and to care for the plants and trees there.

‭‭Berĕshith (Genesis)‬ ‭3:1‭-‬24‬ ‭

[1] And the naḥash was more crafty than all the lives of the field which יהוה Elohim had made, and he said to the woman, “Is it true that Elohim has said, ‘Do not eat of every tree of the garden’?” 

[2] And the woman said to the naḥash, “We are to eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden, [3] but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, Elohim has said, ‘Do not eat of it, nor touch it, lest you die.’ ”

 [4] And the naḥash said to the woman, “You shall certainly not die. [5] “For Elohim knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes shall be opened, and you shall be like Elohim, knowing good and evil.”

 [6] And the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, and she took of its fruit and ate. And she also gave to her husband with her, and he ate. 

[7] Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked. And they sewed fig leaves together and made loin coverings for themselves. 

[8] And they heard the voice of יהוה Elohim walking about in the garden in the cool of the day, and Aḏam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of יהוה Elohim among the trees of the garden.

 [9] And יהוה Elohim called unto Aḏam and said to him, “Where are you?” [10] And he said, “I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid myself.” [11] And He said, “Who made you know that you were naked? 

Have you eaten of the tree of which I commanded you that you should not eat?” [12] And the man said, “The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree and I ate.” 

[13] And יהוה Elohim said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” And the woman said, “The naḥash deceived me, and I ate.” [14] And יהוה Elohim said to the naḥash, “Because you have done this, you are cursed more than all livestock and more than every beast of the field. 

On your belly you are to go, and eat dust all the days of your life.

 [15] And I put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her Seed.

 Enmity is Hostility implies strong, open enmity that shows itself in attacks or aggression. He shall crush your head, and you shall crush His heel.” 

We are supposed to subject ourselves to one another.‭‭Eph`siyim (Ephesians)‬ ‭5:21‬ ‭

[21] subjecting yourselves to each other in the fear of Elohim. [16] To the woman He said, “I greatly increase your sorrow and your conception – bring forth children in pain.

 And your desire is for your husband, and he does rule over you.”

‭‭Eph`siyim (Ephesians)‬ ‭5:22‬ ‭

[22] Wives, subject yourselves to your own husbands, as to the Master. [17] And to the man He said, “Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten of the tree of which I commanded you, saying,

 ‘Do not eat of it’: “Cursed is the ground because of you, in toil you are to eat of it all the days of your life, [18] and the ground shall bring forth thorns and thistles for you, and you shall eat the plants of the field. For when God hands people over to the consequences of seizing blessing on their own terms.

 It is a curse because, instead of abundance and life, we end up with scarcity, isolation, and death.[19] By the sweat of your face you are to eat bread until you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken. 

For dust you are, and to dust you return. [20] And the man called his wife’s name Ḥawwah, because she became the mother of all living. [21] And יהוה Elohim made coats of skin for the man and his wife and dressed them. 

[22] And יהוה Elohim said, “See, the man has become like one of Us, to know good and evil. And now, lest he put out his hand and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever...”

 [23] so יהוה Elohim sent him out of the garden of Ěḏen to till the ground from which he was taken, [24] and He drove the man out. And He placed keruḇim at the east of the garden of Ěḏen, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to guard the way to the tree of life.
