Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother.

Unless you think that teaching from God did not apply to the only human male at the time it was spoken.

Genesis 2:
24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother,

RE: Unless you think that teaching from God did not apply to the only human male at the time it was spoken.

I believe that Genesis was written LOOONG after the fall, so of course the writer of Genesis was using Adam’s relationship with Eve as an example for others to follow.

But come to think of it, I don’t think Adam “left” God even after God made Eve to be his companion.

Genesis 3v8:

“And they heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the Garden.” (Note, this was AFTER they ate the forbidden fruit ).

Their sin has ruined their PREVIOUS relationship with God. Their unbelief in taking the fruit has ruined the relationship of faith and love they had with God BEFORE the fall. That relationship seems to have been one of God “walking” in the Garden with Adam and Eve.

This would seem to indicate that they saw regular theophanies of God, and related to him like that. Either way, the sense of “walking and talking” with him is certainly true... at least it seems to me that’s the sort of relationship this phrase is intended to convey.

Since Genesis, as far as we know, was a "book of Moses," this dictum about leaving the parental household was evidently written down many generations after Adam and Eve's time.

You don't think it was "spoken" to Adam and Eve that they had to leave their parents' household, do you?

And who would their mother be? Pachamama?
