After they ate from the Tree of Knowledge and knew they fucked up, why didn't they just sprint towards to the Tree of Life and eat from it before God could kick them out?
They had already been eating from the tree of life the whole time until getting kicked out, so I assume just eating the fruit of life once isn't enough for permanent immortality. God would have probably killed them with lightning bolts for trying anyways, and then made new humans to cover up his mistake and try again.
>>18101903They could've planted another Tree of Life from its seeds outside of Eden
>>18101909Again, God can just use lighting bolts on them and probably the new tree.
>>18101918What the fuck was his problem? As time tends to infinity, and all possibilities are realised, it's only a matter of time before Man eats from the tree. It's a matter of when not if. That's not a fair test

So the knowledge is just a metaphor for self awareness right? But there's a bunch of coded rumors for what the real story is based on. Like gangbans and drugs. Any /his/torians help me out here?
In Islam, it's the other way around. Humans aren't the first beings created; they are created to replace previous beings (which fits into the Aztecs' five suns and the Greeks' five epochs). So, humans are created, Iblis refuses to bow down, but besides, the Fall is the fault ofDragon/SerpentPeacockWell, and IblisThe dragon thing is a bit complicated (yes, all myths and religions are steeped in dragons, and many gods were associated with them, and many Sumerian gods were called dragons, but I cannot name the exact name of the dragon god who is to blame for the fall) but the peacock is the symbol of Malak Taus (possibly Melqart), Skanda-Kartikeya, and Indra was also compared to a peacock because of his curse. Perhaps they are all the same god.Perhaps, by the way, they saved people from the garden.Are you sure it was good there?

>>18102037Apollo, like Susano-no-Mikoto, is an exiled god.You don't know that in the Jewish tradition, there are also myths about gods who killed ancient rebellious angels and monsters, but then these heroes themselves also became fallen and were exiled. It's exactly the same in Islam. Iblis was actually sent to destroy some archaic beings, but later he himself became rebellious.There is the archetype of the dragon-slayer god and, later, the exiled one.
>>18102025It's actually about perspective.Objective vs subjective, transcendence vs immanence, God vs man.It is the central engine that drives the cycles of dramatic tension and resolution through the rest of the biblical narrative.Basically reconciliation between these two different points of view takes the form of a series of covenants God makes with man, repeated exiles and restorations, scattering and regathering, which are finally unified in the person of Jesus Christ.

side comments:the flame swords angels had were merely sticks with fire. god and his loyals had fire, adam and eve didnt.the tree fruit was reserved for god.also, st george and the dragon that spits fire... komodo dragons have fever causing bacteria in their teeth. they bite the prey once and again until fever makes them so tired that supper is ready.bible and ancient things should be read openminded, not very literally.a last example with the man who discovered fire production by stick friction, but had no word for it.probly called crazy because he said he could bring the sun at night making tree spirits dance.jesus curing blindness spitting eyes or with mud? equine conjunctivitis makes enormous bogs on the eyes at night, sleeping. when they dry, eyelashes get trapped.2000 years ago, in the desert, no water, health system, noone to care for a worthless man? you're blind. forever.john baptist, and later jesus, took off those eye bogus cleaning them with water or spit, or mud, letting it go dry and frrrrrp! unblind again. >miracles.jpg
