Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Genesis 3:11

That thou wast naked; or, that thy nakedness, which lately was thy glory, was now become matter of shame. Whereof I commanded thee; concerning which I gave thee so severe a charge upon pain of death. read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Genesis 3:12

I have eaten, not by my own choice and inclination, but by the persuasion of this woman, whom thou gavest to be with me, as a meet help, a faithful friend, and constant companion, supposing that it was not good for me to be alone, which the event shows would have been much better for me. Thus Adam excuseth himself, and chargeth God foolishly with his sin. I did eat, out of complacency to her, not from any evil design against thee. read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Genesis 3:13

How heinous a crime hast thou committed! What a world of mischief hast thou by this one act brought upon thyself and all thy posterity? Or, why hast thou done this? What causes or motives couldst thou have for so wicked an action? What need hadst thou of meddling with this forbidden fruit, when I had given thee so large and liberal an allowance? And the woman said, The serpent, a creature which thou hast made, and that assisted by a higher power, by an evil angel, for such I now perceive by sad... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Genesis 3:14

Unto the serpent; or rather, this or that serpent, which, as was said before on Genesis 3:1, was no ordinary serpent, but a serpent acted and assisted by the devil; and therefore this sentence or curse is pronounced against both of them: 1. Against the serpent itself, which though an unreasonable creature, and therefore not subject to a law, and consequently not capable of guilt or sin, Romans 4:15, yet, being the instrument of the devil’s malice, is rightly punished; as other beasts being... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Genesis 3:15

Vers. 15. Though now ye be sworn friends, leagued together against me, I will put enmity between thee and the woman; and the man too, but the woman alone is mentioned, for the devil’s greater confusion. 1. The woman, whom, as the weaker vessel, thou didst seduce, shall be the great occasion of thy overthrow. 2. Because the Son of God, who conquered this great dragon and old serpent, Revelation 12:9, who came to destroy the works of the devil, 1 John 3:8, was made of a woman, Galatians 4:4,... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Genesis 3:1-7

MAIN HOMILETICS OF THE PARAGRAPH.—Genesis 3:1-7THE FIRST GREAT TEMPTATIONIt is well for the military general to study the plan and the history of great battles that have been fought in the past, in order that he may learn how best to order and arrange his troops in the event of war. So human life is a great moral campaign. The battle-field is the soul of man. The conflicting powers are Satan and humanity, good and evil. In the history of the first great temptation of our first parents we have a... read more

MAIN HOMILETICS OF THE PARAGRAPH.—Genesis 3:8-12THE SAD EFFECTS OF YIELDING TO TEMPTATIONI. That yielding to temptation is generally followed by a sad consciousness of physical destitution. “And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig-leaves together and made themselves aprons” (Genesis 3:7). Many a man has thought to enrich himself by yielding to the temptations of Satan, he has expected not merely to gain knowledge, but also social influence,... read more

MAIN HOMILETICS OF THE PARAGRAPH.—Genesis 3:13-21THE GENERAL RESULTS OF THE FALL OF OUR FIRST PARENTSI. The result of the fall of our first parents is an eternal enmity between Satan and humanity. “And the Lord God said unto the serpent, because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field: upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life; and I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Genesis 3:1

Genesis 3:1 I. Satan's temptations begin by laying a doubt at the root. He questions; he unsettles. He does not assert error; he does not contradict truth; but he confounds both. He makes his first entries, not by violent attack, but by secret sapping; he endeavours to confuse and cloud the mind which he is afterwards going to kill. II. The particular character of these troublesome and wicked questionings of the mind varies according to the state and temperament and character of each... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Genesis 3:1-24

Genesis 3:0 Consider: (1) some of the consequences, and (2) some of the corroborative proofs of the fall. I. Beside and behind the outward consequences, there were inward results far more terrible. A disease had appeared on earth of the most frightful and inveterate kind. This disease was (1) a moral disease. The grand disease of sin combines all the evil qualities of bodily distempers in a figurative yet real form, and turns not the body, but the soul, into a mass of malady. (2) The disease is... read more
