Just curious about this!

Re: Christians:What Fruit Did Adam And Eve Eat Inside The Garden Of Eden? by gulfer: 5:45pm On May 28, 2012

Researching?? Anyone have an answer?

Re: Christians:What Fruit Did Adam And Eve Eat Inside The Garden Of Eden? by gulfer: 8:22pm On May 28, 2012

Urgently need an answer.

The present Bible doesn't state what fruit they ate but a lot of people mistake that fruit to be an apple. Reason being that the word 'apple' in Middle English, is used to refer to fruits and nuts in general. And Middle English was used to translate the Bible.
The actual fruit they ate was probably written in one of the earlier versions of the Bible but got lost in translation.
Try google for more info.

Thanks Fellis but you will agree with me that a lot of people always say this is APPLE. Just wondering if there is a source to this and I mean facts?

[b]@OP[/b]Is there such a tree known as "knowledge of good and evil"...or such a tree known as "the tree of life" at least in our current reality?

Have you ever considered if the fruit was indeed a metaphor?

And if indeed some will persist that none of these accounts were figurative then surely we cannot know anyway what type of fruit was consumed as no such trees exist in our present world.

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe the phrase, 'eating the fruit ' was used to mean carrying out an action and not literal consumption of fruit.
But try google, there should be more info there.

I think it was an apple. You know they say apple has lots of Vitamin A for good eyesight. Remember taht their eyes were opened after eating the fruit. So my guess is, an apple.

Re: Christians:What Fruit Did Adam And Eve Eat Inside The Garden Of Eden? by nedostic: 3:06pm On May 29, 2012

@OP, this is hard to tell. It might be figurative and it might be a real fruit as well. I have been told by some christian brothers that it is sex but I for one has not been able to decipher what exactly the fruit is.

Apple ko, bombu ni. grin grin grin

There is no doubt that the forbidden fruit was a real fruit, but not necessarily an apple. It was the fruit that came from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil and most likely didn't have any seed in it.

I hav always imagined this to be 'a red apple'

Small children.
I thought the world had changed somewhat since the year 400 to date.
But I see with pain that some people still think the earth is the center of the universe and that sex is satanic.
Well, there's always time to grow. But you make the effort.

What, how and why?

Re: Christians:What Fruit Did Adam And Eve Eat Inside The Garden Of Eden? by coolruler(m): 5:16pm On May 30, 2012

@OP
I believe the whole "apple" thing is a metaphor. It could mean that Adam reached out for knowledge, tried to change his circumstance, experimented with the forbidden. That is what the whole "eating the apple" thing is about. Remember the story of the Greek individual who stole "fire" from the gods and gave it to mankind? The "fire" in this case is a metaphor for "knowledge". See?

Btw, I don't believe the whole "adam and eve" crap. Its just a creation story, same as hundreds of other creation stories of other tribes.

Gen 2:8 And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.
Gen 2:9 And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

Obviously, from this passage it is not figurative. It was planted by God , and grew, and was in the middle of the garden of Eden. the garden of Eden is not Eve's body BTW. And the name of the tree is stated so i wonder why the question. The name of the fruit is the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil lipsrsealed

thank you bro. I don't know why some people thinks this to be sex or in metaphor.If it was sex,i think the bible will make it clear to us. That verses are even clear for everyone to understand as this brother had explained.Why sugesting or adding what is not written in Bible?
The bible aslo said there was another tree in that garden knows as tree of life. If you say the tree of knowledge of good and evil is in metaphor and connote sex ,then what do the tree of life connotes? I think it wrong to sugest what is not writting in bible.Let take words in the bible as they are.

I wonder why they didn't choose to eat from the tree of life? instead they went for the forbidden fruit that brought a curse on mankind.

If eating an apple could make a woman realise that she is naked, then we better pass that apple around again. The serpent beguiled Eve. He was a beast before God broke every bone in his body. He slept with Eve and had a child by her before Adam got to her.

However it takes revelation to see it. Can give you further scriptures that bring this out clearly
