BEST OF Season One! Genesis 2-3
Did you know the true meaning of Genesis 3:16 has been covered over with word pollution by modern translators? The original 11 Hebrew words God spoke to the woman in the Garden of Eden after the Attack were loving and just. But to modern readers it looks like God basically cursed the woman at the very end of her pregnancy. Dr. Joy Fleming spent 7 years studying Genesis 2-3 and revealed that God didn't curse Eve (or Adam) or limit woman in any way! This is our most downloaded Episode of all our 40,000 downloads! From Season One of The Eden Podcast.

Have you read Chapter 1 and its Study Guide in The Book of Eden, Genesis 2-3? It is taken from this very first Episode of The Eden Podcast.
Dr.Joy Fleming cleared away the translation errors contained in our modern language versions. She shows God didn't curse Eve at all. Two words God said in Line 1 of 3:16 linked her with God's words to the man and to the serpent tempter.
The link to the man came in the third Hebrew word: 'itsabon, or "sorrowful-toil." This same word God spoke to the man in verse 17. When God cursed the ground because of the man, both the woman and the man would have sorrowful toil in working the cursed ground with their hands. This was a word about fieldwork. It had nothing to do with childbirth even though the wording on modern Bibles in English and other languages make it look like God was speaking to her about childbirth.
The link to the serpent tempter came in the fourth Hebrew word: heron or "conception," or "pregnancy." This word referred back to verse 15 where God told the serpent tempter the "seed" or "offspring" of the woman would crush his head. God's promise of Messiah was contained in verses 15-16. (This is called the protevangelium or the first announcement of the Good News. It came as a judgment to the serpent tempter and as a promise to the woman he attacked and who had denounced him before God.)
