The First Question Asked
The First Question Asked
The first question presented in Scripture
Polluted Eden with a grim picture.
The discussion regarding what to eat
Was carried out with a tongue of deceit.
Adam and Eve had first received
A crafty invite to being deceived.
Dealings with the subtil serpent
Brought about swift defilement.
A dishonest relationship thus begun
While the grounds wept at the damage done.

Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field
which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea,
hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
Genesis 3:1
