Adam Knew Eve

Genesis 4.1 says, “Now Adam knew Eve his wife, and she

conceived and bore Cain, saying, ‘I have gotten a man with the

help of the Lord.’” The term “knew” is a very appropriate

reference to the relationship between a husband and his wife. It

suggests the intimacy that finds satisfying expression within the

loyalty and commitment of marriage. Mere carnal knowledge as

experienced in casual sex does not fulfill man’s need or God’s

will. The pleasure of knowing one’s partner physically was

designed by God to be an affirmation

of their knowledge of one another on

a far deeper level. Intimacy of heart,

mind and soul gives supreme

meaning to this act. That is why the

Lord reserved physical intimacy for

those relationships where two people

have publicly expressed the depth of

their commitment to each other in

wedlock. This holy union provides

the needed security for mutual trust

and respect. Only on this basis can

two truly become one. It was within

such a setting of love that God intended every baby to be born.
