- The LORD God suspected (or perhaps knew) two things relative to what Adam said: 1) someone told Adam he was naked (God apparently assumed or knew he didn't figure it out himself); 2) that he had eaten the "forbidden fruit."
- The LORD God asked Adam questions, either to find out the answers, or to give Adam the opportunity to lie or tell the truth.
- People are not likely to progress from a state of child-like innocence to maturity without instruction from others.
- The LORD God's language is very direct, but also free from epithets or other expressions of anger, frustration, disappointment, etc.
