Genesis 3:10-11

"And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself. And he said, Who told thee thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?"

There was no way for Adam to hide his sinful condition from God. The mention of his nakedness and his hiding laid bare his ugly secret. It should never be supposed that Adam's actions were in any manner a surprise to God. Even before the foundation of the world, and long before Adam and Eve had been created and placed in Eden, God had anticipated their sin and had formulated the remedy for their transgression (1 Corinthians 2:8). God went straight to the heart of the problem and asked Adam if he had eaten of the forbidden fruit.
