ExplanationCommentary
Verse 7. Adam. A compact was made with him, that if he continued faithful or otherwise, his posterity should be born in original justice or sin. Bible.—He transgressed, and was expelled from paradise, as the Jews were from their land. Septuagint “like a man:” like any who had not been so highly favoured with the law, and so forth Calmet.—Adam means “a man,” and sometimes it would be as well rendered in this sense. Bible.
