While Adam was blameworthy in many ways, Eve was not entirely innocent. And that is why she gets the criticism.
1. She knew exactly what God had said, but modified His actual words to open the way for disobedience.
2. She knew who God was, and what He had given the first human pair, yet she willingly had a dialogue with the Serpent (the Dragon), instead of simply walking away, or going one step further and rebuking him.
3. She wanted to delve into something which was forbidden, and allowed all of her selfish desires (actually the three lusts) to direct her on to the wrong path. In other words, she was willingly deceived.
4. Not only did she blatantly disobey God, but she enticed her husband to become her accomplice in *crime*.
5. When confronted with her sin by God, she failed to ask forgiveness, but transferred blame to the Serpent.
In any event, because Adam was ultimately responsible for Eve as well as himself, and he knowingly disobeyed God (not under deception), he is the one who is held responsible for bringing the curse of sin and death upon the human race, as well as the curse on creation.
There is also a deeper lesson revealed in Scripture;
The Order Of Gods Design FOR The Vessels He has created and made, called manKIND.
Male- then Female, then Children.
Male, a weak vessel, With the Greater responsibility TO Hear, Learn, Teach, Oversee the weakER and weakEST Vessels.
The weakER Vessels, Female, responsibility, TO also, Hear, Learn, Teach, Oversee the weakEST Vessels, Children.
Both Adam and Eve Heard God say; Do Not Eat from the Tree of Good and Evil.
Where was Adam when Eve...
1) heard the Serpent speak to Eve?
2) Eve became Captured by the the Serpents attention?
3) Eve looked at the Serpent?
4) Eve listened To the Serpent?
5) Eve talked To the Serpent?
6) Eve looked at the Tree of G & E?
7) Eve reached out and Took Fruit of the Tree?
8) Eve ate what SHE took?
It is the Same Lesson throughout Scriptures...the Order of responsibility to Oversee.
Further the result of consequence is revealed in Genesis.
Dealt with first is the Culprit... the Serpent.
Then the Female...Then the Male.
