Default Re: How come god created the tree of knowledge?

You don't have to believe this but based on the Bible's stories themselves,
the tree of Knowledge was merely a symbol of God's authority to create rules and regulations.

By not eating from the tree, the humans would show that they respected His right to rule.

By eating from the tree, they were saying that God was holding something good back from humankind and that He didn't have the right to rule over His creation. (Meaning that even though God created humans, they could do their own thing and be fine and didn't need God to direct them around.)
