Once again, God didn’t ask these questions for His own understanding. They were intended for Adam’s benefit. The first question – Who have you been listening to? -- precedes the next question – What have you done? It’s probably how you’ve questioned your child when listening to peers has gotten him or her into trouble. Who they were listening to determined what they had done wrong. It’s important for them to see the link between wrong voices and wrong choices. It’s the way to get to the root of bad behavior. Listening to the right voice prevents bad choices and clears up confusion. In fact, every choice we make in life starts with whom we have been listening to.
