New International Encyclopedia of Bible Difficulties – In the Garden of Eden, the serpent told Eve that if she and Adam ate of the forbidden fruit, they would be "as gods" (Gen. 3:5 kjv). Then in Genesis 3:22 God says, "Behold, the man has become like one of us" (nasb). Does "gods" and "us" imply the existence of more than one God?
