“NET | 1 Ti 2:14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman, because she was fully deceived, fell into transgression.”

You can probably still appreciate that to most people reading that translation, Eve would fit perfectly. “Fell into transgression” I think would sound more like Eve to many people than someone who is probably not a Christian, deceived and teach – authenteining a man. To me, the clincher though is the Greek. As you say, you believed what most people do- that this was about Eve until you learned more about the Greek. I have heard both sides on this and it seems another issue that I would love to be clear, but isn’t. I’m interested to hear what you have found about the verbal aspect theory. Certainly, if the Greek can be clearly shown to not be able to refer to Eve, then that would virtually clinch your current view of the passage.
