<P> In Genesis 3, a serpent tempts the woman: </P> <P> And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: for God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as God, knowing good and evil . </P> <P> Desiring this wisdom, the woman eats the forbidden fruit and gives some to the man who also eats it . They become aware of their "nakedness" and make fig - leaf clothes, and hide themselves when God approaches . God curses the man and woman (and the serpent), and expels them from the garden and thereby from eternal life . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> This section needs additional citations for verification .
