Jehovah apparently chose not to foresee what Adam--and Eve--would do, even though He has the ability to know everything in advance. It is therefore a question, not of whether Jehovah can foresee the future, but of whether he chooses to do so. Furthermore, we can reason that Jehovah, being a God of love, would not knowingly and cruelly predetermine that rebellion--with all its sad consequences--should take place. (Matthew 7:11; 1 John 4:8) Thus, as far as Jehovah's exercise of foreknowledge is concerned, it is selective.
Okay, this ISN'T rocket science.
Do you know what "due dilligence" is?
A parent must exercise reasonable oversight of their offspring to prevent forseeable harm from coming to them or the parent is culpable in any injury sustained due to parental negligence.
You can put your kid who doesn't know how to swim in the vicinity of the swimming pool and CLEARLY admonish them in no uncertain terms NOT to go in the pool. However, your responsibility as a parent does not entitle you to go off somewhere confident there will not be a drowning!
The Genesis account indicates Jehovah didn't have a clue what was going on!
Either that, or God is great at feigning ignorance.
Everything "bad" which happened seemed to occur outside the AWARENESS of Jehovah while it was happening. Where was God, anyway?
When Jehovah took his "evening" walk in the breezy part of the day he was gobsmacked at what had transpired in his absence.
Oh dear!
I'm sorry, but, I'm not buying any of this silly myth.
God is responsible as a parent to see that nothing bad happens by keeping his eye on the very inexperienced humans to warn them if the chatty snakey is filling their ears with nonsense!
