"Did Eve have
any children before she and Adam
ate the fruit of the tree of the
knowledge of good and evil?"
"Or did
they only begin to have children
after they fell, and were put
out of the garden?"
Genesis 3:23-24 shows Adam
& Eve being driven out of the
garden after they sinned and Genesis
4:1 shows Adam & Eve having
their first son Cain, and the book
of Jubilees also show us that Adam
& Eve did not have any children
until after they sinned and left the
garden of Eden. This can be found in
the book of Jubilees chapters
3
Jubilees
3 & 4 Jubilees 4.
So it must have been prophetic
that Adam called the woman Eve
mother of all living since they
were told to be fruitful and
multiply (Genesis 1:28), and Adam
knew that they would eventually
have children in the future so she
would be the mother of all living
people born.
However, if
Adam & Eve had had a child
before they sinned, then I would
assume if the child also ate of the
forbidden fruit of the garden, that
child would have spiritually died
the day that the child ate it and
physically died later on in life
like Adam and Eve did. Or if
the child had not eaten of the
forbidden fruit of the garden, it
could have eaten from the tree of
life and lived forever in the
garden, but it still would have
needed someone to care for it.
But it didn't work out that way
because all mankind ended up with a
sin nature and ends up dying because
of Adam's & Eve's sin. 1
Corinthians 15:22-23 states, "For since by man came death, by man came also the
resurrection of the
dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be
made alive."
As I see it, Adam and
Eve didn't break the command of
the Lord's to be fruitful and
multiply because He didn't say it
had to be by a certain date that
they had to have a child. They
eventually had
children.
You also asked the
following:
"But
in the new earth, after
the great white throne
judgment, will there be
any "not-yet-resurrected"
people still alive, that
were not cast into the
lake of fire?
Or
will only resurrected
people inhabit the new
earth?"
After the sheep
and goat judgment of the sheep and
the goats, which some people place
at the beginning of the Lord
Jesus' 1,000 year reign on Earth
and some people place at the end
of His 1,000 year reign on Earth,
the righteous (sheep) go into life
eternal according to Matt. 25:46
and the unrighteous (goats) go
into the everlasting fire and
everlasting punishment prepared
for the devil and his angels
according to Matt. 25:41 &46.
So it looks like there will be
mortal beings still alive at the
end of the millenium. Since
the Lord kept both Elijah and
Enoch for thousands of years in
their mortal bodies, there is no
reason He couldn't keep these
righteous (sheep) people and their
children alive as well in their
mortal bodies.
Then
if you read Rev. 22:1-2 after
the new heaven and new earth
with no sea are created and New
Jerusalem comes down from heaven
as shown in Rev. 21, there is "a pure river of
water of
life, clear as crystal, proceeding out
of the
throne of
God and of
the Lamb. In the
midst of
the street of
it, and on
either side of
the river, was
there the
tree of
life, which
bare twelve manner
of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the
leaves of
the tree were for the
healing of
the nations." If
everyone had an immortal
body not subject to injury
or sickness, there would be
no need for the leaves from
the tree of life to heal
anyone which means there
will be mortal people on the
new earth from what I can
see which will need healing
after the millenium.
You also asked the
following:
"Will
there be no more descendants
of Israel born at that time,
and only a fixed number of
Israel to live in the new
Jerusalem, without change?
If
so, then definitely, the
LORD's original command to
Adam and Eve, was never
fulfilled as given, but only
was carried out by fallen
men and women?
And
will that mean that it also
never will be fulfilled as
originally given?
i.e.
was there never a child born
to someone without a sin
nature, and will ther never
be a child born to someone
without a sin nature, ever?"
Since there are
people still in mortal bodies at
the end of the millenium, more
descendants of Israel should be
born.
So
yes, it looks like there
will never be anyone who
is not born without a sin
nature because 1
Corinthians 15:22-23
states, "For since by man came death, by man came also the
resurrection of
the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be
made alive." Even the
children during the
millenium are born
with a sin nature
because when Satan is
released from the
bottomless pit for a
little season after
the millenium is
ended, he ends
up deceiving the nations which are
in the four quarters of the earth,
Gog & Magog to gather them to
battle: the number of whom is as
the sand of the sea. (Rev.
20:8-9) So it looks like
many will be in rebellion against
the Lord and His saints because
they compassed the camp of the
saints about and the beloved city:
and fire came down from heaven and
devoured them. So there must be
children that had a sin nature
that were born during the
millenium. The only way I
see a child being born without a
sin nature that all mankind got
from Adam would be for the Lord to
create a new Adam & a new Eve
who never sinned because Romans
3:23 says, "For all have
sinned, and come
short of
the glory of
God;"
