Original Sin is a term that relates to our fallen nature due to the sin of Adam and Eve. Their sin was a sin of Pride (the worst of the 7 Deadly Sins) because they were convinced by Satan's argument: Gen 3:5 "For God doth know that in what day soever you shall eat thereof, your eyes shall be opened: and you shall be as Gods, knowing good and evil."
But there is hope even in Genesis--the "Protoevangelium" that tells about Jesus who comes to save us and "the woman" who bore him-Mary, the Mother of our Lord.
Gen 3:15 "I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel."
Satan's Sin was also one of Pride. Satan said, "I will NOT serve." There is no redemption for Satan. Some say that God showed his Angels the fact that God would become Man and this is why Satan rebelled.

Satan's sin came before Adam and Eve's sin, but Adam and Eve's sin was the original sin of humanity. Humanity can be saved, but Satan cannot.

The original sin of MANKIND was Adam and Eve's departure from God's instructions. But, Satan rebelled prior to that.

choosing to go against God by eating the fruit was the origional sin. Adam had to have the choice to sin in order to have all choices. Satan wanting to be God was the birth of sin but the state of sin was introduced on earth thru the serpent thing.

your own words answer your question: "The bible doesnt make a lot remark with reference to unique sin. and that i dont remember jesus speaking about adam & eve both at the same time as he got here to earth on his challenge to save mankind. I recommend, that's necessary is it no longer, so why didnt he say some thing to the individuals of Israel on the cases, and to the apostles????" The Bible would not say some thing about unique sin. It would not exist and makes no sense. that's a made-up doctrine of the church.

There was no sin just good and evil before man was created. The bible says Adam and eve commited the first sin.
You did say"in the bible" so you answered your own question.
If you were right it would be in the bible not in your mind.

When people say the original sin they mean man's original sin.

I've read the Holy Bible more than a dozen times, maybe two even, and "ORIGINAL SIN" is NOT WRITTEN anywhere at all. Check it out for yourself!
That is a FALSE DOCTRINE invented by man for his 'new' man-made church many eons ago... Sorry.
Peace be with you!
