I think it is interesting that God said to Eve that her desire “shall be ” rather than ‘will continue to be’.

truthseeker,

But her desire is connected to the increase in toil and pain is it not?

“I will greatly multiply Your pain in childbirth, In pain you will bring forth children; YET your desire will be for your husband,

I mean, if we are going to say ‘why not?’ to Eve’s desire being good, then why can’t we have the right to say the same about Adam’s forthcoming rule?

Someone needs to tell me how desiring one’s husband is a bad thing. Desiring a husband over God is different from just desiring one’s husband. Desiring to rule over a husband is also different from just desiring one’s husband. The object of the desire is the husband, not an action against the husband.

Adam ate out of rebellion
He didn’t protect his wife
He blamed God and his wife for his sin
He was going to take from the tree of life and so it had to be protected
He had to literaly be thrown out of the garden

He’s got a track record.

Where’s Eve’s record? Or what is there within the text to tell us that her desire was sin? I can find nothing.

Adam wasn’t given rule over his wife and it’s only mention after his rebellion that is, once he’s fallen. Eve didn’t stay deceived though.
