Here’s more of my thoughts Craig,

J is saying that Adam was not deceived into abandoning his role though Adam sinned in abandoning his role, but I can’t see the how or why Adam was not ‘deceived’ into abandoning his role yet Eve was?

I also think that Adam had a will and could have chosing to not follow Eve in eating.

Nevertheless, Adam’s assumption of a submissive role was, like his taking of the fruit, something that happened passively. He did not ask Eve to lead him.

I wouldn’t conclude Adam was passive just because he followed her steps. Just because he did what she did and after she did it doesn’t mean that his action was passive.

And why was Adam’s eating after Eve considered a submissive role? The following thought is interesting: ‘Adam didn’t ask Eve to lead him.’ So I take it that Eve asked Adam to ‘follow’ her? Where did she do this?
