"She took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat."
Man and woman were one flesh Is it not? But nakedness stamped her body of the ground from which her husband was taken. Meanwhile the rib stamped glory was her covering. Only faith held these two worlds as one. Adam was not beguiled but the woman was. His fault was to disobey a direct command from God. Our love of God must be total.
St Paul asks," Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?" He adds, "Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."(Rom.8.35-39
Heb.1.6 God's command 'worship ye him' to the angels set the context for worship which is in truth and spirit.(Jn.4.23-24)
Rev.5. 11-13 In the vision of John we have the true worshippers and it is in spirit. In the vision of Isaiah also we see seraphim,"And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory." (Isa.6.3; Job 38.7) This glory was acknowledged by"When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?" We also have a part when do all things for his glory. "Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;"(Eph.5.19) our inner man is refreshed by our worship. It is our reasonable service. By sin we see Adam blaming Eve and with such contrariness what worship shall they conduct?
"And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons." Their eyes were opened to their shame and their knowledge of good and evil went only to cover their nakedness. Their eye of faith went shut! "and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked"(Rev.3.17)
The same blindness, so many sects making up their own worship.
