The artistic license was great, when i made reference to “Chapter 2” i meant the next chapter to your story, ‘Both knowing the rule but now that the serpent had ‘planted the seed’, how would they continue to battle against their will and curiosity knowing the consequences were “death”, whatever ‘THAT’ was. (… Why do i feel like they were in Narnia?).

Oh I understand now. My chapter 2 of this fictional story.

That is some creative thinking about what might have been!

A great bedtime story for the kids. I think Adam’s final solution was a good one. However, in chapter two, after Eve received the same rule, did they wrestle with that compulsion to try the fruit anyway?

I made up a lot of the content of the story. I don’t believe Genesis 2 explains how Eve came to know of the rule. We also don’t see them wrestling with the meaning of the rule in the Bible. I made up that part. We also don’t see in the Bible what Adam thought of Eve eating the fruit. Lots of artistic license in this one.
