Home › Timeline › The Declaration and the Deep Record › The fall
The apple. Not fruit — self as arbiter. Ye shall be as gods.
In plain words
The text says the temptation was to be as gods, knowing good and evil. The fall is not about fruit but about the self made judge: a creature taking the Creator's seat, which opens a debt that will be collected.
The mechanism
THE LEDGER OPENED — a creature takes the creator's seat, and a debt once opened gets exacted, because that is what a ledger does
