Do you? Jehovah God did know such thing. Jehovah told Adam and Eve what the consequences of sin would be, and so they are. If you tell your child not to go into the street without looking both ways and your child does so and is hit by a car, did you make it happen? Could you have prevented it? Most probably, by physical restraint, but that wouldn't be very rewarding or fulfilling an existence for either of you. Jehovah is outside of space and time. He holds the universe in the palm of His hand. Picture a rectangular acquarium in your living room. There is a goldfish there, who swims back and forth across the tank. Now, peering into the tank from this perspective you can see all that is happening at the same time. You can see the seaweed at the opposite end of the tank, and the coral skeleton that the fish will collide with if he doesn't change his course. You can see up, down, side to side, all at the same time, while the fish knows only what is in front of him.
