The Snake's Trick: Adam and Eve's Deception
00:01:59
Speaker
So without any further ado, let's begin today's reading for January 2nd, 2025. Today's story picks up out of Genesis 3, and it is titled, The Snake's Trick. Now the snake was tricky. He talked to the woman. Did God say not to eat fruit from the trees?
00:02:25
Speaker
No, she said, we may eat fruit, just not from the tree in the middle of the garden. God said we can't even touch that tree. We'll die if we do. You won't die, said the snake. God knows that the fruit will make you wise, just like God. You will know good and bad. The woman looked at the fruit.
00:02:53
Speaker
It was very pretty. It looked like it would taste good. Since she thought it would make her wise, she ate some. Adam was with her, so she gave some to Adam too. Right away, they saw they had no clothes on. All of a sudden, they felt bad. So they made clothes out of figs leaves.
00:03:22
Speaker
Then they heard a sound they knew. It was God walking in the garden. He came at the cool time of day. The man and woman hid among the trees. Where are you, Adam? Called God. I heard you, said Adam, but I hid because I was scared. I didn't have any clothes on.
00:03:53
Speaker
Why do you feel bad about that? asked God. Did you eat the fruit? I said not to eat. My helper gave me fruit from that tree, said Adam. So I ate it. Then God asked Adam's helper. What did you do? The snake lied to me, said the woman. I ate the fruit. Then God spoke to the snake.
00:04:22
Speaker
Now you will be the lowest animal in the world. You'll crawl on your belly. You'll taste dust all your life. The woman will hate you. Her child will hate yours. You'll bite at his heel, but he will pound on your head. God told the woman, you will have children, but there will be pain when you have a baby, and your husband will be in charge of you.
00:04:54
Speaker
God told Adam, you listened to your wife. You did not obey me. You'll eat the plants that grow in the field, but you'll have to work hard to get anything to grow. There will be lots of weeds. Adam named his wife Eve. Then God made clothes out of animal skin. He gave them to Adam and Eve.
00:05:24
Speaker
Adam knows good and bad now, said God. We cannot let him eat from the tree of life too. If he does, he will live forever. So God sent Adam and Eve out of the garden. Then he put angels at the east side of the garden. He also put a sword of fire there. It flashed back and forth. Now no one could get to the tree of life.
Story of Cain and Abel
00:05:56
Speaker
Genesis 4, the first children. Sometime later, Eve had a baby. She and Adam named him Cain. Then she had another baby. She named him Abel. Cain and Abel grew to be young men. Cain worked as a farmer. He grew fruit. Abel took care of sheep. He was a shepherd.
00:06:24
Speaker
One day Cain took some of his fruit. He gave it as a gift to God. Abel took some of his best sheep. He gave them as gifts to God. God said but that what Abel gave him was right, but what Cain gave him was not. Cain got mad and he frowned.
00:06:51
Speaker
Why are you mad? asked God. Why are you frowning? Do the right thing. Then I'll like what you bring me. But what if you don't do the right thing? Then sin will wait at your door. Sin wants to catch you, but you must not let it get to you.
00:07:13
Speaker
Now Cain asked Abel to go out into the field with him. And while they were there, Cain killed Abel. God said to Cain, where is Abel, your brother? I don't know, said Cain. Do I have to keep track of my brother? What did you do? asked God. I know what happened. You're in trouble from now on.
00:07:40
Speaker
You will try to farm the land, but it won't grow food. You will have to move around from place to place. This is too much, said Cain. I can't farm the land anymore. I will be hidden from you. Anybody who finds me will kill me, and I'll have to move from place to place. If they do, they will be in trouble, said God. So he put a mark on Cain.
00:08:10
Speaker
Then no one who saw him would kill him. Cain left. He went to live east in the land of Nod. Now Adam and Eve had another son. They named him Seth. This child will take Abel's place, said Eve.
00:08:33
Speaker
Well, that was quite a lot today.
Reflection on Cain's Offering Rejection
00:08:36
Speaker
We heard about Cain and Abel and eating of the first fruit that they were not supposed to eat. You may have a question about ah why ah one gift was considered acceptable and one was not. I want to emphasize that one day Cain took some of his fruit and Abel, however, it took some of his best sheep. And that is why God was displeased.
00:09:05
Speaker
with Cain because he only brought some something. He didn't choose the very best. It doesn't say he took the worst, but it says that he just took some of them. And God wants our very best. And so I thought that that was important to point out today.
00:09:25
Speaker
Well, thank you for joining me today, and I hope you enjoyed the story. Thank you, and we will see you again hopefully tomorrow.
