Where in the Old Testament can you find the doctrine of original sin?

Question

@Averrell

Looked, but no mention of sin....

@Hineni

Jews don't have the doctrine of original sin...

so obviously Eccl. didn't refer to it....

Adam and Eve were like the gods until the partook of the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil...it wasn't until then that they could have been inclined toward sin....

@micros --exactly

opposite of original sin-

19 "Yet you ask, 'Why does the son not share the guilt of his father?' Since the son has done what is just and right and has been careful to keep all my decrees, he will surely live. 20 The soul who sins is the one who will die. The son will not share the guilt of the father, nor will the father share the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous man will be credited to him, and the wickedness of the wicked will be charged against him.

Answer 1

It is not there. Quite the opposite is found. Look at Ezekiel 18. In particular verses 19-20.

Answer 2

Romans 5:12 speaks to this, “Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned.” Romans 5:19a declares further, “For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners…” Adam and Eve were made in the image and likeness of God (Genesis 1:26-27). As a result, all human beings are also in the image and likeness of God (Genesis 9:6). However, we are also in the image and likeness of Adam (Genesis 5:3). When Adam fell into sin, that resulted in every one of his descendants also being “infected” with sin (Psalm 51:5).

Answer 5

"Original sin," meaning sin derived from our origin, is not a Biblical phrase (it comes from Augustine), but it does bring into focus the reality of sin in our spiritual system. Original sin does not mean that sin belongs to human nature as such; "God made man upright" (Ecc 7:29). Rather, original sin means that sinfulness marks everyone from birth, in the form of a heart inclined toward sin, prior to any actual sins; the inner sinfulness is the root and source of all actual sins; it is transmitted to us from Adam, our first representative before God. The doctrine of original sin makes the point that we are not sinners because we sin, but we sin because we are sinners born with a nature enslaved to sin.

Answer 6

Genesis 3.

Answer 7

Psalms 51:5
Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me.
