Gênesis 3:1-20 NVT

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Genesis 3:1-7

- Section III - The Fall- The Fall1. נחשׁ nachash “serpent; related: hiss,” Gesenius; “sting,” Mey. ערוּם 'ārûm “subtle, crafty, using craft for defence.”7. תפר tāpar “sew, stitch, tack together.” חגורה chăgôrâh “girdle, not necessarily apron.”This chapter continues the piece commenced at Genesis 2:4. The same combination of divine names is found here, except in the dialogue between the serpent and the woman, where God (אלהים 'ĕlohı̂ym) alone is used. It is natural for the tempter to use... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Genesis 3:1

Genesis 3:1. The serpent was more subtle, &c. Some would render the word נחשׁ , nachash, here, monkey or baboon, and the word ערום , arum, intelligent: but it may be demonstrated from divers other passages of the Old Testament, where the same words are used, and from several parts of the New, where they are referred to, that our translators are perfectly right. The former word is used concerning the fiery serpents which bit the people in the wilderness, which certainly were... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Genesis 3:2-3

Genesis 3:2-3 . The woman said With a view to defend the conduct of her Maker toward them, against the insinuations of the tempter. We may eat of the trees of the garden Of all the trees except one. It is only concerning one that God hath said, “Ye shall not eat of it.” But when she adds, Lest ye die, it is evident her faith begins to waver, and she inclines to doubt whether God would fulfil his threatening, which was not, “Lest ye die,” but, “In dying ye shall die;” that is, “Ye... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Genesis 3:4-5

Genesis 3:4-5 . The tempter, finding that the woman began to doubt whether eating this fruit was a crime, and if it were, whether punishment would follow, now became more bold in his attack, and, giving God the lie direct, asserted roundly, “Ye shall not surely die.” So far from it, you shall have much advantage from eating of this tree. He suits the temptation to the pure state they were now in, proposing to them, not any carnal pleasure, but intellectual delights. 1st, Your eyes shall be... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Genesis 3:6

Genesis 3:6. When the woman saw, (or perceived) But how? Certainly by believing Satan and disbelieving God. Here we see what her parley with the tempter ended in; Satan, at length, gains his point; God permitting it for wise and holy ends. And he gains it: 1st, By injecting unbelief respecting the divine declaration. 2d, By the lust of the flesh: she saw that the tree was good for food, agreeable to the taste, and nutritive. 3d, By the lust of the eye, that it was pleasant to the... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Genesis 3:7

Genesis 3:7. The eyes of them both Of their minds and consciences, which hitherto had been closed and blinded by the arts of the devil; were opened As Satan had promised them, although in a very different sense. Now, when it was too late, they saw the happiness they had fallen from, and the misery they were fallen into. They saw God was provoked, his favour forfeited, and his image lost. They felt a disorder in their own spirits, of which they had never before been conscious. They saw a... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Genesis 3:8

Genesis 3:8. They heard the voice of the Lord God walking, &c. It is supposed he came in a human shape; in that wherein they had seen him, when he put them into paradise. For he came to convince and humble, not to amaze and terrify them. And they hid themselves, &c. A sad change! Before they had sinned, if they heard the voice of the Lord God coming toward them, they would have run to meet him; but now God was become a terror to them, and then no marvel they were become a terror... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Genesis 3:9

Genesis 3:9. The Lord God called, (probably with a loud voice,) Where art thou? This inquiry after Adam, may be looked upon as a gracious pursuit in order to his recovery. If God had not called to him to reduce him, his condition had been as desperate as that of fallen angels. read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Genesis 3:10

Genesis 3:10. I was afraid, because I was naked He confesses his nakedness, which was evident; but makes no mention of his sin. This he wished rather to hide, feeling, indeed, the shameful effects of it, but not yet being truly penitent for it. read more
