#2,3- Jesus.
If there was no sin before Adam ate the fruit, then eating the fruit could not have been a sin. Anything they did after could have been a sin, but not eating the fruit itself since Adam did not know that to take a bite of the apple would be a sin since there he had no knowledge of sin until after it was eaten. Or am I missing something?
