A New Twist To An Old Story

Thank You Rabbi Friedman!

Well, I´d never saw it that way...
There are SO many ways to interpret Torah! It`s just amazing...so many wisdom in it...simply wondrus
Thnanks Rabbi!

ok, so, the tree would be kosher on shabbos, fine. but how could they get the fruit from the tree without violating the laws of shabbos?
if i remember correctly, picking fruit on shabbos, "kotzair", is a no-no.

How come never heard anything like this before???
But how could Eve be 100% sure that that was what G-d wanted them to do?
And if it was, why couldn't G-d spell it out for them and was to be so cryptic a message, dafka tell them to do exactly the opposite of what He wanted them to achieve?

If they think they have to do something with the tree BEFORE Shabbos, that means they are "under the gun" because they only have a few hours to decide what to do, and then the opportunity would be lost forever. Should they do, or should the not do? G-d said "don't" but when you do, you'll die. But does that mean they would "die" on Shabbos? If so, then what does it mean to "die?" And if we are supposed to "die" then is death something that can be in a good way or a bad way?

Also, what tradition? There was no one else. Unless "seeing from one end of the world to the other" means seeing forward in time as well as looking back. But that only makes it more difficult to understand, because that would mean they saw what the consequences of their "sin" would be, and they still decided to do it.

i never heard this explained so clearly before, im so glad i got to hear this, it all makes sense now! Thank you Rabbi Friedman for your wonderful lectures :)
