Genesis 3:8-How Could Adam And Eve Go From God’s Presence If God Is Everywhere?

The Bible Difficulties and Answers Podcast

Today we explore a verse to determine why Adam and Eve tried to hide from God walking through the garden. Actually, does God “walking” and humans hiding from an omnipresent God even make sense? We’ll look at how cartoons like Arthur and Thomas the Train might help us understand this problematic verse, along with a doctrine of Christology and how it might fit here, and finally, how a clearer understanding of the Hebrew used here may unlock the solution. As usual, I will present a number of different opinions from my research and conclude with my own thoughts. Show notes will include links to all we discuss.
