Before Adam and eve ate of the forbidden fruit, did God know that they would?

I doubt it .....

because I think that God's Wisdom is far greater than His want of having a need-to-know regarding the outcome

of something as foul and meaningless as the bible's metaphoric rendition and description of humanity's first sex act.

Why did Eve eat the fruit to begin with? She saw someone eating it. Who? Satan. Sometimes we get enticed to do something by watching others. In Adam and Eve's case they where commanded by their creator not to eat the fruit.

But if you keep watching and keep wondering instead of turning away, you give in. That is what happened to Eve.

They had the free will and where closer to perfection, so they could of benefited forever if they obeyed.

So the bottom line is if we as imperfect humans are tempted to do wrong we can choose to turn away and do good.

God knows the secret person of the heart.

God gave them a choice. The Scriptures show us that God chooses when he wants to use his power of knowing things in advance, or to not use that power. Note what he told Abraham here - Genesis 22:12 - Then he said: “Do not harm the boy, and do not do anything at all to him, for NOW I do know that you are God-fearing because you have not withheld your son, your only one, from me.” - - - - This Scripture makes it very clear that God chooses whether or not to use his power to know what a person will do, or not to use that power. He allowed Abraham to show his faith, rather that to use his power of foreknowledge. So, Adam and Eve had a choice. They made a bad choice and disobeyed God. However, God IMMEDIATELY took steps to remedy the situation. At Genesis 3:15, God foretold his purpose to use his Son, Jesus Christ, to correct matters - Genesis 3:15 - And I will put enmity between you and the woman and between your offspring and her offspring. He will crush your head, and you will strike him in the heel.” - - - - Satan would strike Jesus in the heel by having him put to death. But Jesus was resurrected by God. So, when the time comes, he will crush Satan in the head, putting him completely our of existence. Then, as King of God's Kingdom, Jesus will do all the things he showed that he had the power to do, all over the earth. He will remove sickness, he will heal everyone. He will make sure everyone has plenty of food. He even told the evildoer that was put to death at the same time as Jesus was, that he would be able to live in a paradise - Luke 23:43

And he said to him: “Truly I tell you today, you will be with me in Paradise.” - - - - So, the earth will also be turned into a paradise all over the globe. - - - - Note the conditions that will then exist - Revelation 21:4 - And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away. - - - - We know that Jesus was not resurrected on the same day he died. So what he told the evildoer about a paradise, was to take place at a future date, not that very day. Jesus just told him that day. - - - - Note that even death is to be removed - 1 Corinthians 15:26 - And the last enemy, death, is to be brought to nothing. - - - - God foretold in the Scriptures that the truth about all these things would become abundant during a period called, "the time of the end." - Daniel 12:4 - “As for you, Daniel, keep the words secret, and seal up the book until the time of the end. Many will rove about, and the true knowledge will become abundant.” - - - - "The time of the end", "Many will rove about and the true knowledge will become abundant." - - - - Note that Jesus said there would be a preaching work that would also take place just before what he called, "the end." - Matthew 24:14 - And this good news of the Kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come. - - - - It is by means of this preaching work that "the true knowledge" would become abundant all over the globe - as Jesus said, "to all the nations." So is there a preaching work going on now? YES! It has been going on for over 100 years. It is right now being preached in 240 lands around the globe, and in over 900 languages online. So we must be getting close to the fulfillment of Jesus' words, "then the end will come." It is actually God's will that EVERYONE take in this accurate knowledge and be saved - 1 Timothy 2:4 – whose (God’s) will is that all sorts of people should be saved and come to an accurate knowledge of truth. - - - - Since there are so many different religions all teaching so many different things, HOW does one make sure they are getting the accurate knowledge of truth that will lead to salvation? - - - - Jesus tells us EXACTLY where to get this truth - John 17:17 - Sanctify them by means of the truth; your word is truth. - - - - Since God's word is the truth, it is NOT contradictory. So, we can compare the Scriptures to what we are told. Then, to make sure we are getting an accurate knowledge of truth, we need to follow this Biblical example - Acts 17:11 . . . carefully examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so. - - - - If we do this, we will be able to recognize the truth. There is no greater treasure to be found. Bible truth liberates us from superstition, confusion, and morbid fear. It gives us hope, purpose, and joy. Jesus said: “You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”— John 8:32. - - - - The truth sets us free from all sorts of false religious teachings. By means of the preaching of the good news, people all over the earth are learning about the accurate knowledge the foregoing Scriptures spoke about. - - - - Note that God is called the Hearer of prayer - Psalm 65:2 - O Hearer of prayer, to you people of all sorts will come. - - - - So, I urgently encourage you to pray to the Hearer of prayer, and ask him to put you in touch with those preaching the good news of the accurate knowledge of truth.

The Bible says that Jesus Christ was the lamb slain since the foundation of the world God knew the possibility existed just like you know that your children are probably going to misbehave and God provided Jesus Christ as a sacrifice before he even created Adam and Eve Jesus and God sat down and had a talk and Jesus agreed to take the job if it became necessary

Of course, that's the way the fairy tale was written.

An omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent, perfect, eternal absolute precludes creation. If God existed we wouldn't be here to have this discussion. 

Yes. He knew them. That's why the plan was made for Jesus to save.

I know the man running the coffee shop will fail. So?

Obviously not considering He set up the test involving their free will to choose. <t><

It was a set up.

Anyway, if Eve had not eaten it, one of their kids would have.

"I told you not to touch that tree, now look what you have done! There will be consequences!"

SMACK

"WHAAAAA!"

Yes he knew they would and he knew what Satan would do before he created him too
