There is more to the Living Soul than authority.
Imagine if you will the Adam was officiating the preisthood in gan eden, a Holy place of eternal dominion to the waters that feed twelve manner of trees.
So then when his help meet yet to be a wife comes to him with a another decree.
He ate of the strange fruit without knowledge of what a covenant is.
Do you not know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one with her in body? For it is said, "The two will become one flesh."

...she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD. (Gen 4:1)
she never said that she got the seed from Adam.

She thought Cain was the one but he turned out to be a bad apple and when Seth came along, she thought he was the one. Little did she know that her time wasn't God's time.

Genesis 4:1
Does it say she got the child from the LORD?
It says "Adam knew his wife", which is a euphemism for having intercourse.

Curiously enough, most of the punishments to Eve seemed to have some relation to pregnancy or childbirth. Why? Just bouncing thoughts on this...
Intriguing question.
One would almost think the unauthorised gain in knowledge resulted in a larger skull, causing painful birth.
That's not what i believe though. But who knows?
It may also be prophetic and referring to the birth pains in the end times.

Taken in combination with scripture that is quite clear that the Mosaic covenant and Aaronic priesthood are eternal we can read the passage that the new covenant is not a replacement covenant but rather about the failings of the people. We do not believe in replacement theology here.

<stifling> :D

I see that you are Baptist (from the info on the left). Perhaps take a step back and remember that our religion (Christianity) is based on a faith that was Jewish for thousands of years before the Messiach came. It was steeped in the ritual and beliefs of the Jewish people. The disciples and first Christians worshiped as Jews or G-d Fearers for quite a while before leaving the synagogues. They also worshiped at the Temple and continued in the sacrificial system until the Temple was destroyed in 70 AD - so they continued making sacrifices via the Aaronic priesthood to Hashem as commanded by G-d for another 30 or so years after Yeshua ascended to Heaven. If they truly believed in replacement theology as well, why would they continue making sacrifices via the Aaronic priests until the Temple was destroyed? A decent argument can be made that the first believers were a Temple sect...

Gen 3:8 Says nothing of a Sabbath.
... And Yet Again ...
Sabbath existed LONG BEFORE the Mosaic law. Its found in Bereshit.
[1] See e.g. Yoma 28b; Rashi to Bereshit (Genesis) 26:5; Rashi to Bereshit (Genesis) 32:5 -- "Yaakov said, 'I dwelt by Lavan, yet I kept all of the 613 Mitzvot'"

Were they born around the same time?

You would have to be certain about Cain and Abel to know if they were born at different times.

Jehovah/Yahweh didn't look on Cain's offering and Abel's offering he did look.

There is a Serpent Seed!

Genesis 3:15 Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

15 and enmity I put between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; he doth bruise thee -- the head, and thou dost bruise him -- the heel.'

Adam and Eve felt ashamed after their fall and took fig leaves to cover their private parts. Genesis 3:7 Excuse me, why didn't they cover their heads for their failure to be obedient? Was this an indication of the type of guilt? The first sexual encounter is always eye opening in more than just sexual. It opens up another world. The pandora's box of implications.
. Why do you think Adam and Eve didn't have sex in the garden? Sex isn't the original sin, you know. If they were in the deep harmony I think of, I think sex would be part of the equation. Besides, wasn't there a "be fruitful and multiply" blessing/command to the couple before they left the garden? Genesis 1:28.
