The influence of the Bible on Western culture is self-evident, and it has spawned many interesting and eccentric legends, as well as countless proverbs or words with specific meanings derived from biblical stories. In the West, for example, a man's throat knot is pronounced Adam's apple in English, Chinese translates to "Adam's apple," which tells of Adam being tempted by Eve to eat the forbidden fruit and then being expelled from the Garden of Eden. This story is familiar to everyone, but this apple should be called Eve's apple, after all, Eve was first tempted by the snake, ate it herself, and then let Adam eat it.
Speaking of which, Adam is a bit wronged, but when later generations interpret it, there seems to be a tendency, that is, Adam is not particularly wronged in this matter. And the evidence is the throat knot that remains on the man's neck. It turned out that when Eve asked Adam to eat the apple, Adam should have known that the apple could not be eaten, and that eating it would go against God's will. So he ate apples in a hurry, afraid of being discovered by God. But the more he was afraid of something, the more something came, and God suddenly appeared when Adam ate the apple. Adam was in a hurry, and there was a piece of apple meat, or apple core, that he didn't have time to swallow, stuck in his throat, and became a throat knot.
This throat knot did not disappear as Adam was punished, but rather was inherited to humans as Adam and Eve had children, so that men had this trait, reminding humans of what mistakes their ancestors had committed. But in fact, we humans have laryngeal knots in both men and women, but in most cases, male laryngeal knots will be more prominent and easy to see, so they will become male features and be noticed.
Calling the male throat knot Adam's apple is actually an extension of biblical culture, or with a sense of ridicule. But this explanation shows that people do not specifically admit that stealing the forbidden fruit is eve's fault, and that Adam was at best deceived. Because Adam knew God's prohibition from beginning to end, and knew that the fruit on the tree could not be eaten, then why would he be willing to eat the apple?
The only explanation is that Adam, like Eve, at heart, ate the forbidden fruit "pretending to be deceived" with curiosity and desire, so that when he was driven out of the Garden of Eden by God, Adam had no complaints, because this was what he deserved.
As a couple in distress, there are inevitably many interesting combinations extended from Eve, such as "Eve's temptation" to express an invincible and irresistible desire, and unconsciously fall into a trap. Of course, this contains eve or the seductive power of Eve's body that hits the heart, and "Eve's temptation" becomes the original sin of women. In fact, Eve was first seduced by the serpent, and then she went to seduce Adam, so the sin was transferred from the serpent to Eve, and it was inherited from the blood relationship to the woman.
In addition to the seemingly sexist words such as "Eve's temptation", there is also a word in the West called "Eve's gaze", which also extends from the biblical story of stealing forbidden fruit. People tried to explain why Eve was so easily seduced by the serpent and ate the forbidden fruit without any warning.
Some argue that this has to start with the different ways God created men and women. Adam was made of dust by God and blown into the pure soul, so Adam was born to obey God and would not have had a heart of betrayal. But Eve was made of flesh and blood, she was made by God out of Adam's ribs, born with the desire to be born out of flesh and blood. So Eve wasn't so willing to live with Adam in the Garden of Eden carefreely, she had more complicated thoughts. The snake's seductive words were only a medium, and the key was the restlessness in the depths of Eve's soul that caused her to commit a betrayal of God.
In fact, when God created Eve, Eve's eyes were filled with this curiosity and restlessness. Michelangelo's genesis captures this essence and portrays Eve under God's left arm very eloquently. Only the upper part of Eve's upper body is visible, and in all the child-like piles of angels representing purity, Eve is very feminine, feminine, mature, and close-up of the eyes reminds people of attention. At that time, Adam was lazily relying on God to inject his soul, and Eve did not appear fully from under God's arms, but was semi-hidden, but her eyes were full of curiosity about Adam, because of unrelenting desire.
This freeze shows that from birth Eve carried the fate of being seduced by and tempted by others. Because of the irrepressible temptation, mankind completely lost the life of the Garden of Eden, and from then on mankind had sin and death. So "Eve's gaze" is also called the death gaze.
