Adam Cursed by God Himself
Genesis 3:17-19 (KJV)
17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;
18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;
19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.
Sorrow- Worrisomeness, labor, pain, toil.
Sweat- Perspiration, move, tremble, to shake off, to agitate as with fear, vex.
Eat- Dine.
Face- Nose, nostril, face.
Bread- Food (for man or beast). Fruit, loaf, meat.
Note:
There are two curses. God cursed Adam with labor (sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread) and with death (unto dust shalt thou return). The curse continues till today. He, who does not WORK, should not eat. Whether you work a field or work otherwise, to buy our food we must work. Before, in the garden, Adam and Eve ate freely from the fruits; therefore, no work was involved.
