Thematic Bible



And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and a delight to the eyes, and to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit, and gave it to her husband.

Your first father was a sinner, and your guides have gone against my word.

For this reason, as through one man sin came into the world, and death because of sin, and so death came to all men, because all have done evil:

For as by man came death, so by man there is a coming back from the dead.

And Adam was not taken by deceit, but the woman, being tricked, became a wrongdoer.


Your first father was a sinner, and your guides have gone against my word.

And Adam was not taken by deceit, but the woman, being tricked, became a wrongdoer.

If I kept my evil doings covered, and my sin in the secret of my breast,

But like a man, they have gone against the agreement; there they were false to me.

But still death had power from Adam till Moses, even over those who had not done wrong like Adam, who is a picture of him who was to come. But the free giving of God is not like the wrongdoing of man. For if, by the wrongdoing of one man death came to numbers of men, much more did the grace of God, and the free giving by the grace of one man, Jesus Christ, come to men. And the free giving has not the same effect as the sin of one: for the effect of one man's sin was punishment by the decision of God, but the free giving had power to give righteousness to wrongdoers in great number. read more.
For, if by the wrongdoing of one, death was ruling through the one, much more will those to whom has come the wealth of grace and the giving of righteousness, be ruling in life through the one, even Jesus Christ. So then, as the effect of one act of wrongdoing was that punishment came on all men, even so the effect of one act of righteousness was righteousness of life for all men. Because, as numbers of men became sinners through the wrongdoing of one man, even so will great numbers get righteousness through the keeping of the word of God by one man. And the law came in addition, to make wrongdoing worse; but where there was much sin, there was much more grace: That, as sin had power in death, so grace might have power through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

And God gave them his blessing and said to them, Be fertile and have increase, and make the earth full and be masters of it; be rulers over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over every living thing moving on the earth.

And the man and his wife were without clothing, and they had no sense of shame.
