    Adam was told not to, but only afterwards did he know. These early part of Genesis are interesting in the way the world supposedly unfurled.

      Yes, I realize he knew he did something wrong after he did the wrong thing. The point was he didn’t know it was wrong before and when he did it. Which makes the god of Genesis supremely fucked up.
