Many believe that in Genesis 2:16-17, God is threatening to punish Adam with death if Adam eats from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. This episode of the One Verse podcast explains why this is not the best way to read Genesis 2:16-17. Death is not a punishment, nor was it a curse.
In this discussion of Genesis 2:16-17 we look at:
-The final element needed for temple worship
-The commandment of God to eat from the tree
-Why the warning about death is not a punishment from God
