Adam was the first man who God trusted in the Garden of Eden. Yet, he sinned against God by disobeying God while also failing to take responsibility for it. When Adam and Eve’s eyes were opened, shame took hold of them, which caused them to try to hide from God. The Bible says, “[Adam] said, ‘The woman you put here with me – she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it” (Genesis 3:12). As a result of their sin and their unrepentance, the fall of man resulted.
