i was summarizing my post #68.
In Gen. 3:2-3 Eve repeated God's command not to eat of the tree, so she heard the command from somewhere. Regardless of how she heard it...she knew the command not to eat of the tree of knowledge (even though a few words were added ... from somewhere ... about touching the tree.) The Sgt. Schultz "I know nothing" argument doesn't float for me. Both sinned. Both eventually repented (sorry I can't seem to clarify this point adequately.)
The main point is that due to inaccurate translations of a few verses in the Bible, women have been hindered in their walk with the Lord and their roles in the church, having been relegated to a subservience which God never intended.
