This material is not theologically sound doctrine. I typically love these studies offered through Hosanna, and have purchased several, but this study is horrible.
For one, Eve was deceived, she did not rebel knowingly. The way Beauty Not Beheld frames the fall suggests that Eve’s primary sin was assuming authority over truth and beauty, but that’s not actually what Scripture says. The Bible explicitly tells us that Adam was not deceived (1 Timothy 2:14). That means Adam sinned with full knowledge, which is far more damning. Eve believed a lie; Adam knew the truth and still chose death, and worse, chose to murder his wife—this is why sin entered the world through Adam—NOT EVE (Romans 5:12). You should pull this book from the shelf. Spreading a false gospel is a deplorable sin.
Please check Bible Studies for Biblical accuracy before printing them. Sadly, I won’t be purchasing any in the future.
