The Lord Cursed Adam, Eve And The Snake

   
The Lord was so angry when He realized what happened. He turned to the snake and then He cursed the snake to forever sail on his belly ... he will always live in the dust.

He then cursed the snake and Eve with an enemy bond between them.  They, as a species, will kill each other off until the end of time.

He turned His attention to Eve and cursed womanhood with giving painful birth to a child ... and that Adam would rule over her and that she will only desire Adam for the rest of her days.

The Lord then turned His attention to Adam.  He informed Adam that the good days was over.  Adam would put food on the table by the sweat of his brow for the rest of his life.  Nothing would come easy for him ever again.  If he wanted something he would have to work for it and make it himself  ... and when Adam dies, he would return to dust, because he was made from dust.

The Lord then made coats of skin and clothed them.

The Lord thought about what happened and He then came to the conclusion that He would have to send Adam and Eve out of the Garden of Eden.  He banned them for Paradise and He placed, at the east side of the garden, angels and a flaming sword, which turned every way.  He had put them there to protect the Tree of Life.
