Genesis 3:6 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

The woman saw; by curious and accurate observation, and gazing upon it, or perceiving it by the serpent's discourse, as was observed on Genesis 3:3. Pleasant to the eyes, to wit, in an eminent degree; for otherwise so were all the rest. To make one wise, which she might know by the serpent's information. See Poole on "Genesis 3:1". Gave also unto her husband with her, who by this time was returned to her, and who now was with her; or, that he might eat with her, and take his part of that fruit. And he did eat, by her persuasion and instigation. See 1 Timothy 2:14.

6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasantb to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
