Understanding the Forbidden Fruit: Why There is NO FALL of Humankind in Genesis

The entire tale in the book of Genesis of Adam and Eve eating the forbidden fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil has been portrayed as the FALL OF Humanity from God's Grace and Favor. It is quite the opposite. In this video I examine the original texts, properly translated and understood in their historical contents. This is history not theology! Viewer beware!
