There is nothing in either that shows Adam or Eve had any way of knowing they should obey the God character or the serpent
Are you saying a man that had enough knowledge to name all the creatures brought to him to name would not have enough knowledge to understand a direct command?
Just wondering.
I remember my grandmother telling me not to touch the red hot sides of the heater because if I did it would burn me.
Had I obeyed my grandmother I would not have a scar on my middle finger of my right hand today.
Had that man not disobey God there would be no sin on the earth.
Paul tells us that by that man sin entered into the world.
God Bless,
