My answer regarding Adam & Eve + children in the Garden?
Ok, God increased the pain of childbirth. Do you deny that? You must realize you CANNOT increase 0 or has never been. Is the Bible incorrect where it indicates her pain would be increased? You can believe it lied there if you wish, but neither of our beliefs are true unless they coincide with that of God. I believe the Bible, therefore I get the conclusion it is correct in what it says. I have gone back into the Hebrew on this question because most people that worship where I do, do NOT believe this, either. In order to increase anything you must have it before the increase.
Another thing, after they were put out of the garden, Adam knew Eve and she bare a son, and that was after they were out of the garden according to context.
Then, what is a country? Just land? Look again and see Cain went into another country and took a wife. Are you saying more people were created than Adam and Eve after we are told Eve is the mother of all living.
I'd love your comments.

Wow I never paid attention to that. I always thought they didn't have children in the garden (because of the verse were it said "Adam knew Eve and she bare a son") and after Cain and Abel she just had a lot more kids that moved to different places, but after reading these chapters closely even though it doesn't mention it in the Bible, it would make sense that they had kids in the garden, because of
Genesis ch.4 v.25
And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.
and how it mentions Seth in Ch.5 as if it was their third child since they got kicked out of the garden.
THere had to be a lot of people for Cain to actually move and find a wife.
So either Adam and Eve had other kids after Cain or Abel and before Seth, that are not mentioned in the Bible
or they had children while they lived in the garden, which will explain why it is said in
Genesis 3:16 Unto the woman he said, I will greatly MULTIPLY thy sorrow and thy conception; (kjv)
thanks for pointing this out
