How did Adam and Eve know good from evil?

How could they know what was right or wrong if they did not eat from the tree yet? In order to comprehend the end result they would have to know good and evil. No matter what they were told, anything before eating from the tree, they would not understand the consenquences.

You actually stated the correct answer....and yet you apparently do not understand your own response. Yes, they relied on god for information, since they needed to rely on someone. But they STILL did not know right from wrong! They had not eaten from the tree yet. A hundred people could have entered the garden, each telling Adam and Eve what to do. They could understand what was asked of them, but they would not know if that information was good or bad. They had no way of knowing.

But what would that do? No matter what god told them, since they didnt know good and evil, they still would not know if his response was a good one or evil one? How could they know god was good? Since you believe the serpent was evil (I think someone MAAAAAAAY have stressed it was not Satan ), how could either know what he spoke of (hissed?) was good or evil?The key point is, they had NOT eaten from the tree yet. That tree is what imparted them with that knowledge.
