Genesis 4:7 If you do well, shall you not be accepted? and if you do not well, sin lies at the door. And to you shall be his desire, and yet you may rule over him.
Genesis 6:3 And Hashem said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for he also is flesh...
A more literal translation on "for he also is flesh" would be "when to sin them he is flesh".
This word for sin here are the kind that are typically listed as sins of ignorance in Torah.
Ezekiel 45:20 And so you shall do on the seventh day of the month for everyone who sins in error or ignorance...
It is the same root that is translated as "sins in error" in this verse.
Personally I think it is from this that Paul got the analogy of "walking in the flesh" (in Hebrew thinking "to walk" means how you live).
Galatians 5:19-21
Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are:adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murder
and the like; of which I tell you beforehand just as I have told you in times past, that
that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of Elohim.
I love how he says "and the like" this is not a complete list - our behavior DOES matter.
Peter says:
1 Peter 4:1...for he who has suffered in flesh has ceased from sin.
John says
1 John 5:18 We know that whoever is born of Elohim does not sin...
So, I think I will stick with these
