This is not biblically accurate. She should be naked, since she doesn’t yet have knowledge of good and evil, and god considers nudity evil, because he is a prude. But also he didn’t clothe Adam and Eve, cause he’s a perv.

[–] Mothra@mander.xyz 50 points 6 months ago

My quip with the artistic choice is that they made Eve have very very long hair which could have served as breast cover. But they chose to add the inaccurate leaves...

Also bellybutton shouldn't exist on Adam and Eve.

[–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 9 points 6 months ago (2 children)

How do you think god counted them? Poke a finger in the belly.

It's actually just for support, they're pretty heavy

And the bible never says the fruit was an apple

[–] BugleFingers@lemmy.world 18 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Given the era, I wouldn't be surprised if it was actually a fig

[–] EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works 15 points 6 months ago (1 children)

It's the garden of eden so there's no reason to believe that it's a fruit we have. My head canon is that it was a giant, fruit shaped flaming hot Cheeto

[–] BugleFingers@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago

So it was a FIG-ticious fruit?

The comic is obviously of a theatre reproduction of the event.

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago (3 children)

To be fair they also didn’t have genitals since they can’t Fuck, so maybe they literally have nothing to be ashamed of.

Unrelated but they also shouldn’t have belly buttons because they weren’t born.

[–] scrion@lemmy.world 24 points 6 months ago (4 children)

I don't think that interpretation, i. e. the absent genitals, is canon.

...then how do they have children? where did Cain and Abel come from?

[–] Vincent@feddit.nl 10 points 6 months ago (1 children)

...and where did all the people that came after Cain and Abel come from? Who was their mother?

[–] EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works 7 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Cain and Able weren't Adam and Eves only children. Keep in mind that canonically, Adam lived for over 900 years. That's a lot of time you can use to make more babies.

After the whole regicide incident, they also had Seth. Both him and his exiled brother ended up marrying their sisters. Their descendants did the same. So yeah, it's all incest, top to bottom.

The biblical flood was actually created to wipe out the descendants of Cain, since Noah and his cousins wife were both descendants of Seth

No genitals? Where did Eve’s children came from? She shat them?

Bottomless but not topless? Eden was a wild place!

[–] MeatPilot@lemmy.world 35 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

Just like Winnie the Pooh in the Hundred Acre Wood

This implies that the garden of Eden was in the US as they're the only ones that know what pumpkin spice even is.

Her wearing a bra even before having a bite suggests that too.

[–] Infomatics90@lemmy.ca 10 points 6 months ago

was going to say, she was supposed to be naked.

[–] EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works 4 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Maybe 10 years ago but nowadays it's internationally much more ubiquitous

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 5 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I don't think many places share this seasonal pumpkin obsession.

The "apple" was a persimmon?

[–] dragontamer@lemmy.world 34 points 6 months ago (6 children)

Actually, the Bible just says it's the fruit of a tree.

It could have been an orange, pomegranate, or banana.

A nut, bit right through the shell

[–] Chainweasel@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

Weed, they got baked and leaned the knowledge of good and evil.

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 months ago
