The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil - World Mission Society Church of God

Most people, whether of not they are Christians, know about the tree of the knowledge of good and evil in the Garden of Eden. At that time, God commanded Adam and Eve not to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, saing, "When you eat of it, you will surely die" (Genesis 2:16).


However, they were tempted by the serpent and ate from the tree, so that they were driven out of the Garden of Eden. Most people generally know this.

This raised a question: 'Did God, who made all things and created Adam and Eve, not know that they would eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil? If He had already known, He must have intended for them to die.' In regard to this, some give the following explanation: God gave them free will and it was their choice whether or not to eat the forbidden fruit. Is their answer based on the Bible?

God said, "I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say: My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please (Isaiah 46:10). Then, can we say that God the Almighty, who had made known the end from the beginning, did not know that Adam, and Eve would eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil?

If God already knew that they would eat from the forbidden tree, why did He command them "not to eat of it"?
