Love what you are doing :) and feel like taking a challenge. Here I give it a try -- my summary of Genesis 3: "God gave Adam everything, but forbade him from eating the fruit from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Eve, his wife, was deceived by the serpent: she took the fruit from that tree and share with Adam. After they ate the fruit, the earth became cursed. God sent them out of the garden of Eden.

trust to the lord for god only knows everything >the serpent represent as the devil. the devil want that all the people of god will destroyed for he want to replace the position of god as the mos powerful of all. like what the devil done to adan and eve. so nothing will compares to the lord and the powerful weapon is to pray...

Did God say you can't eat from any tree in Eden Eve you not die God is trying to trick you Satan said why would he lie because he doesn't want you to be wise like him so I say eat it

NIA

God said to Adam and Eve you could have what you want dont eat from the middle
Satan tries to lie to Eve saying she will b like God Eve says they can't eat from it Satan makes another fable saying she eats it she would not die but Eve took a bite God was sad Adam and Eve got tricked by Satan

Life would have been so good in the garden.... Looking for His return to make all things new.

Satan asked Eve did God really say you can't eat from any tree in the garden Eve answered the devil we can eat from any other tree except this one if we do we will die Eve said you wouldn't die Satan said God is lying to you Eve believed Satan she ate the fruit and gave some to Adam who was with her they were naked God said what did you do ? Adam said Eve gave it to me and I ate it Eve said Satan tricked me and I ate too

What verse does it say that the ground was cursed and god sent adam and eve out of the garden?

The earth is cursed in v17-19. They are sent from the garden in v22-24.

God created the earth only to make it a colony of heaven so that "Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven."

He created the man and breath (gave his word to the spiritman NOT the flesh) into his nostril and man became a living soul.

Man touched the sovereignty of God when he believed a lie from Satan and obeyed Satan instead.

God was angry and sent man out of his presence (Garden of Eden where there is also eternal life) into the world where the father of lies rule.

Loss of fellowship with God through deceit and disobedience: pain in childbirth for woman, hard labour for man and loss of innocence. Thank God for making a Way back to relationship with Him!

What do you make of this chapter? What do you think of my summary? How would you summarise it?

I summarised all 1,189 chapters of the Bible on Twitter - one tweet per chapter, one chapter per day for over three years.

These are the summaries of the book of Genesis.

They are written to help you understand and remember what's going on in the chapter, but they're no substitute for reading the Bible for yourself.
