yes she died, as a direct consequence of eating the fruit death was brought into the world.

Have you even bothered to read this stuff before you came here bleating about how unfair it all is?

OK, "lest YE die".

That's a warning of consequences to her (and Adam).

But it wasn't a warning that the consequence would also spread into the world, to be meted out to all of her unborn descendants. If there's a charge of unfairness anywhere, it lies in punishing the children for the crime of the parents.

Yes to be fair the extended consequences were not specifically explained, any way you cut it though she was told what not to do and told what at least the consequence affecting her would be.

It should be noted though that there are parts of the bible that are not fantastically verbose, Genesis is certainly one of them. Bear in mind there was no death at all in the garden of eden, it reasonable to assume that Eve might surmise that eating would bring death into the world. I guess at the end of the day we dont really know what happened in the time in the garden, but the general gist of the story is recorded.

I accept the story is flawed, but what I dont accept is that it is a tale of teh evils menfolk destroying women.
