God said, "Let there be light." Then the light appeared.
God said to divide the water, and it happened.

God made a Covenant with the man he created: "Never eat the fruit of the tree of knowledge that can distinguish good from evil."
But Adam and Eve didn't keep their promise. They ate the fruit of the tree of knowledge. This is the original sin of mankind.
At the beginning of Genesis, the syntax and structure were actually very simple, very simple, nothing more than what God said, so what God achieved and created. This is actually an appointment. Taking this as the opening of the whole Bible is to talk about the importance of "covenant".
But Adam and Eve's breach of contract not only hurt human beings, but also hurt God. The "contract" is aimed at both parties and is to be completed by both parties. If one party breaches the contract, it means that the other party can't keep the contract.
Because of people's breach of contract, God has sinned against people, and people have original sin.
The original sin of mankind is not to eat the fruit of the tree of knowledge, but to violate the Covenant of mankind and lead to God's breach of the Covenant.
Speaking of "about", unilateral "about" is not "about". The opening of Genesis shows that there is no unilateral "contract". When God and human beings make an agreement not to eat the fruit of the tree of knowledge, human beings can't tell good from evil, but under such circumstances, such an agreement is still a real agreement. This is God's expectation and optimism for mankind. In the eyes of God, he will keep his promise and keep his promise. This is his creation in those six days. He created man in his own image, and man should be able to conclude, keep and abide by contracts like him. At that time, human beings could not distinguish between good and evil, which showed that in God's view, making a Covenant, keeping a Covenant and keeping a Covenant had nothing to do with human knowledge, which meant that people should also be able to make a Covenant, keep a Covenant and keep a Covenant.
When concluding a contract, you must keep it, and if you keep it, you must keep it. Therefore, we should conclude the contract cautiously, abide by the contract sincerely and perform the contract completely.
The original sin of mankind lies in breaking promises.
It is extremely easy for God to make a contract, keep it and keep it. From this point of view, breaking the human contract is not only the original sin, but also the great sin: isn't it a great sin to fail to do such an easy thing?
