Genesis 3:6 - So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate.

Prior to actually eating of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, Eve “saw the tree was good”… she now had the knowledge of good. Interesting.

In other words, she gained the knowledge of good prior to eating of the fruit of the tree that was going to give her that knowledge.

Jesus taught us in Matthew 5 that the sin of murder and adultery are not limited to the acts of murder and adultery. The sin of murder and adultery start with the mere thoughts of anger and lust.

This shows that principle - the sin occurred prior to her first bite… the sin happened several verses ago the second Eve questioned the authenticity of God’s word.
