Nov 15, 2019 at 20:26 comment added jong ricafort @lBenson 3 Re "fruit of your womb" is different. Logos Incarnate to the pure womb of Mary is Jesus the "True Eternal Wisdom". Remember Lucifer knows this is the Divine Plan of God. So, the serpent offered Eve the "false wisdom" that She too can "bear a child" and offer it to God as a pleasing sacrifice instead of their own bodies (Romans12:1). Eve likes the idea and Adam desire it too and so the "sexual procreative act" was committed according to serpent plan and not according to the Will of God. This is the "exact" original sin.
Nov 15, 2019 at 20:16 comment added jong ricafort @lBenson 3 "bring forth fruits" translation(Geneva Bible) is directly related to Galatians5:22, as Adam & Eve obedience will bring forth fruit towards perfection of their virtues. Eastern Orthodox Fathers teaches the journey of Adam & Eve towards Theosis is quite long.
Nov 15, 2019 at 16:56 comment added iBenson @jong so the verse should be read as "be fruitful [by the works of your hands] and [let the works of your hands] multiply". Are the *works of their hands" to "fill the earth and subdue it"?. I've seen a translation that renders the wording as "bring forth fruite..." (Geneva Bible). However Luke 1:42 mentions the "Fruit of your womb"..

Nov 14, 2019 at 2:41 comment added jong ricafort Sexual intercourse is a sin if its not in accordance with the Will of God. The word "be fruitful and mulitply" does not refer to "sexual intercourse" but it means the "works of their hands" must be fruitful, and it will only be fruitful if it follows the Will of God. The fact that the punishment is related to "sexual procreation" validates that "sexual intercourse" is the nature of original sin. St.Augustine theory is correct.
