The relations between men and women in Genesis are

characterized by deception and lies on the part of the women.

Women in Genesis were originally explained as being created as

men's helpers. The women were supposed to be dependent on men

and not think for themselves. God explained this by saying, "It is not

good for man to be alone; I will make a fitting helper for him"

(Genesis 2:18). However the women in Genesis are always using

their femininity to deceive men in different ways not only to help

themselves but sometimes their loved ones as well. This is a

contradiction to God's purpose for women. There are many examples

of deception in Genesis, but I am going to concentrate on the stories

of Adam and Eve, Rebekah and Isaac, and Rachel and Laban.

Eve is the first women created in Genesis. She serves as a

model for all women in Genesis, however not a very respectable one.

Eve was supposedly deceived by the serpent. I disagree, Eve knew

she was not supposed to eat from tree in the middle of the garden,

and in fact she told the serpent this, "It is only about fruit of the tree

in the middle of the garden that God said: 'You shall not eat of it or

her feminine traits of cooking Isaac's favorite meal against him.

Since she was sitting on the idols and wouldn't stand up Laban did not

Isaac would then bless Esau with the Lord's approval. Rebekah

met Rachel, Laban's daughter, and fell in love with her. Jacob worked

even telling him what it was. Adam took the apple trusting Eve's

women in general deceptive but they used their femininity to deceive

went to his mother's brother Laban to find a wife in his land. Jacob
