The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil

Tree of Knowledge of Good and EvilWhat is the “knowledge of good and evil?” You know, when God created the Garden of Eden, there were two trees in the middle of the Garden, one of Life and one of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. It wasn’t just the tree of the knowledge of evil; it was the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

In looking at definitions of judgment, one can find this: “a statement of how good or bad you think an idea or action is.” It strikes me that a common sense definition of the knowledge (or the understanding) of good and evil is “judgment.” Does that cause anyone to pause and think?

Are they just names of some tree or do those words have meaning for you and me today?
