The man called his wife’s name Eve, because she was the mother of all the living

 Good morning. The man called his wife’s name Eve (remember that Adam named all the animals), because she was the mother of all the living. We are all descended from Adam and Eve. The Lord God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife, and clothed them. Think about it: prior to this they wore no clothes, and however long this was, the weather was such that they did not get cold even at night. Also, in order for God to make garments of skin for them, one or more animals had to die (though it could’ve been of natural causes). Then the Lord God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of Us (plural - is this the Godhead?), knowing good and evil; and now, he might stretch out his hand, and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever“. If that had happened, there would have been no long-term consequences of sin. Even when we do wrong, God still sometimes provides for us. Father thank You that we will live forever, not because of something we have done, but because of what You have done.
