Since the man was not deceived, it seems he gave in because of the influence of the woman which is reflected in his response to God, “The woman…gave me of the tree, and I did eat.

This is not what scripture says.  Adam used the woman as an excuse but God says in Hosea 6:7 that Adam dealt treacherously against God.  This cannot be explained by an coercion that the woman did to the man.  God is giving heart attitude but outside influence.

In other words, I am saying that it is not an indisputable fact that the man witnessed the serpent’s temptation of the one created to help man.
What seems relevant to me is that Satan uses whatever means is most effective to tempt an individual to sin.

I appreciate your opinion, but I beg to differ.  Adam was there with Eve and both the plural pronouns indicate this plus the word “with” means to travel with or to have companionship with.  It means he was there with her.
