How could Adam and Eve fall in the faith being in the paradise? (Part 1)

Unfortunately, the man failed in the four commandments that the Creator gave him.

Adam fail in the second commandment:

• Gen 2:15 -> “The LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it.”.

Adam was put in Eden specially to work it and keep it. Therefore, this was a commandment to him. Regrettably, he didn’t obey it diligently. Otherwise, Ha-Satan wouldn't be able to invade the garden and possess the serpent.

Adam fail in the third commandment:

• Gen 2:16,17 -> “And Jehovah God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.”.

Certainly, he didn’t eat freely of the good trees. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have desire to eat of the forbidden fruit.

Adam fail in the fourth commandment:

• Gen 2:19 -> “Now out of the ground the LORD God had formed every beast of the field and every bird of the heavens and brought them to the man to see what he would call them. And whatever the man called every living creature, that was its name.”.

How I know this? Well, first of all, let’s figure out what is this commandment. Naming the animals isn’t simply put a label in them, but know them carefully and name them pursuant to their inward and outward characteristics. If Adam had been punctilious in this task, he would have perceived that the serpent was craftier than any other beast of the field that the LORD God had made (Gen 3:1) and, thus, keep an eye at it.

But, worst than this was the name that Adam gave to Eve:

• Gen 2:23 -> “Then the man said, “This at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.””.

How did Adam conclude this if, when the Creator made the woman, he was sleeping?

Have a good day. Tomorrow we will keep on.

But it does not say that death would enter Adams life if he did not protect the garden and it does not mean that God was not protecting Adam and Eve when satan came to talk to Eve. I think that it was in our God's expectations that Adam would fail to choose to listen to God so He had a plan ready for rescue Adam and Eve in a prophecy about Christ who would suffer instead and conquer satan through death to gift salvation in Jesus to all who believe in his name. Also to me it means that my relationship with God is based on his love to me and not from my righteous decisions or works but from his work in my hart and from his grace and my faith thant comes from His work in my life. It is said somewhere that all our days were written in his book before the world was created. So my understanding is that our Heavenly Father is in control of what is happening with us in all our moments of our lives and He is proactive in our lives unless we tell that we dont want his protection and his gift through Jesus Christ. Then we proactively refuse Him and chose eternal suffering in Hell like my friend told me yesterday that he sees it as choosing to be in eternal nightmare that you could never be able to wake up from.
Oh my, I said too much already. They were my thoughts, please correct me if I messed up somewhere. It is still dificult to put in words my understanding of faith in Jesus.
