it directly to Eve.

Eve’s Addition
Eve
adds “neither shall ye touch it,” which God did not say.
Reference:

Identity of the Serpent

Genesis text calls it a serpent; it is later associated with Satan elsewhere in
Scripture.
Reference:
Genesis 3:1 – “Now the serpent was more subtil…”
(See
also Revelation 12:9 for later identification)

The
phrase “with her” suggests Adam may have been present but silent.
Reference:

calls Adam, indicating his role as head and responsible party.

“Where

Adam
indirectly blames God by saying “the woman whom thou gavest.”
Reference:
Genesis 3:12 – “The woman whom thou gavest to be with me…”

redemption.

of Skins

the first animal sacrifice and covering of sin.

is their first mention in Scripture, guarding sacred space.
