NEW: Chapter 3 of Genesis, “The Fall of Man”

Chapter 3 of the King James Version of the Bible is now up and annotated on Rap Genius. Many will recognize this chapter as the one in which Eve gets convinced by Satan (in serpent form) to eat a piece of fruit from the forbidden tree, making God super sour and paradise off-limits for the rest of human history. Genesis 3 is also the source of the concept of the Fall of Man, which many Christian denominations believe to have corrupted the entire natural world.

Take a little gander at the annotations we’ve gotten up so far, like this one on how the serpent tempts Eve to “usurp the authority of Adam” or this one on how God flexes his omniscience by tailoring his speech to human limitations to communicate with Adam.

P.S. In case you missed our post about it last week, the entire New Testament is now up on Rap Genius. Check it out here.
