I mean, if Eve truly did represent all women wouldn’t we have to know about it? In other words, wouldn’t God have made it very clear through Paul? And since it surley is not clear since “she” must be interpreted to mean “Eve” then how could any woman really know? We know that Adam represnted all mankind, so how come we don’t kow anything similar about Eve?

Very profound questions. Indeed how can we know? The fact is that if it is not found in the Scriptures and we are adding to the text what we think it means rather than mining the text for what is already there, we cannot know and anyone’s thoughts on what it “could” mean are just as good as someone else’s.
