Just a side note as I kept thinking of today's WT. I've always figured that since Satan didn't say that kind of tree, that if it was an apple tree, that there were other trees of that species in the garden. I mean, it isn't like Jehovah had pear, apple, pecan, fig, etc, and Adam and Even had to go figless or unappled, did they? Why did it have to be that tree?
I told Lesley this morning what I have said here. Had it been me, I'd have took out running when that snake started talking to me. "Adam, get your buns over here and help me!" I'd have been screaming Adam at the top of my perfect lungs so hard all the crows would have scattered out of the tree tops and the hippos would have unsubmerged from the river. Oh, but like any seduction, it only works if you take your time, so this may not have happened in five minutes. The stupid woman had to go look at the fruit over and over. You don't see a picture in the WT of Jesus looking at the stones and thinking how good some bread would be right about now after 40 days fasting.
