It's the tree of the knowledge OF GOOD AND EVIL, not "the tree of (all) or (hidden) knowledge!
And Eve was not confused; she knew which tree it was.
Sheesh, the ignorance around here...
Quoting: Keep2theCode genesis 2.9 says there were 2 trees in the middle of the garden 1 was the tree of life and the other the tree of knowledge Quoting: MBECC 41628336 Yeah, so? She said herself that God told them not to eat from the tree of THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL. She knew what tree it was. The only thing she was tricked about was that she'd become like God if she ate it, and it was the serpent who told the lie, not God being careless or cruel. Quoting: Keep2theCode so what is the tree of life? I thought Adam and Eve were immortal until they ate the fruit of the tree of life ....which made them mortals... is it correct?? Quoting: MBECCU 41628336 Nothing says either of them ate from the Tree of Life. It was only after they sinned that God said the man must not eat of it or he would live forever, and drove him out to work the ground from which he alone was taken, which God cursed on his account alone. But on the other hand, we don't know why they would need to eat if they were immortal. Yet people eat in heaven when they're clearly not mortal, so we just don't know.
