According to the NKJV version of the Bible, these were the first questions ever asked in the Bible:
​
1) (serpent asks Eve) Gen 3:1
"Did God really say, 'You must not eat from any tree in the garden'?"
​
2)(God questions Adam and Eve) Gen 3:8-11
​
8 Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the LORD God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the LORD God among the trees of the garden. 9 But the LORD God called to the man, "Where are you?"
​
10 He answered, "I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid."
​
11 And he said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?"
​
Is it significant that the serpent was allowed to ask the first question? Were we meant to question God from the very first day?
​
In other words, was the entire scenario meant to happen?
