Probably. But there is not written in the Bible that it was an apple. In fact it is very unlikely that it was an apple because the climate was not suitable for apples to grow. We only know that the FORBIDDEN FRUIT grew on a tree and not a bush or vine If I had to Guess I would say it was a lemon considering the taste and it soured mankinds life.

Adam and Eve are not historical figures and the Bible story is an allegory about sin. The story is a writer's attempt to explain life and death and sin in understandable terms. There is no true or false answer to your question.

Okay maybe,but really if it wasn't Adam and Eve it would have been someone else.Satan wouldn't have just gave up and stopped right there,in fact he whispers to all of us on a daily basis,to tempt us or to lear us away from God.because we have free will someone would have messed up sooner or later. We were created to have a choice and man sold out to Satan,it's only by Gods grace that we can go to him and say,I'm so sorry for falling for those lies,please forgive me and I'll stop it,Please God guide me from here on.And he will,you then have to follow that guiding instead of Satans.

Of course its true. But don't take my word for it. Read Genesis chapter 2 verse 17.Just as a rule your mother or father gives you rules, and consequences. Adam was also given a rule, and the consequence was death. You will also notice in the scripture that it does not name the type of fruit. In the future try to take the truth exactly from the bible.

First off, Adam and Eve didn't bite any apple. Second, their sin created the world we now live in, a sinful world that includes death and suffering.

Ha ha. . . It is true the fruit is not apple, but the fruit of knowledge of good and evil.
I don't know if they will die physically. May be yes, as a life cycle. May be not, and they will live forever with God.
But what happen is, the relation with God was gone, and the rulership of the earth was given to Satan.

No one really knows. I have been a believer all of my life yet I am not sure what that all means. I tend to think the answer is that man would not have experienced the kind of death that we experience today.
