      A patristic understanding of this commandment is that is was temporary and that Man would have eventually been allowed to taste of its fruit when he had matured spiritually. Unlike the angels who were created more statically, Man has the capacity for growth, physical & spiritualpic.twitter.com/6m9gryORt3

      As St. Gregory the Theologian explains: "...the Tree of Knowledge; not, however, because it was evil from the beginning when planted; nor was it forbidden because God grudged it to men — let not the enemies of God wag their tongues in that direction, or imitate the serpent."pic.twitter.com/j2n3PAE7ua

      "But it would have been good if partaken of at the proper time; for the Tree was, according to my theory, Contemplation, which it is only safe for those who have reached maturity of habit to enter upon"pic.twitter.com/fHbzX5fmXQ

      "but which is not good for those who are still somewhat simple and greedy; just as neither is solid food good for those who are yet tender and have need of milk." St. John of Damascus says something similar in this regard.pic.twitter.com/doRzh9KOT0

      Now let's transition a bit into the divine destiny of man and our difference from the angels. When the Psalmist speaks of man, he says that man was "created a little lower than the angels," but we know from Paul's epistles that man's end is much greater.pic.twitter.com/guiThMw8DA

      "Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters? Know ye not that we shall judge angels?" Created lower than but the end goal of man is to be higher than the angels themselves.pic.twitter.com/ktDiQxufZ5

      There was debate to if the Incarnation would have been necessary had Man not fallen, and I think it's difficult to argue otherwise. God taking on the flesh of man didn't just redeem our fallen nature, but raised it to that of divinity.pic.twitter.com/p4txCtgXOW

      Man's destiny is higher and greater than that of any other creature: to participate in the divine nature itself, to share and partake in God's glory and be in direct Communion with Him. Theosis was always the goal and purpose of Man, even before the Fall.pic.twitter.com/FHcSPbyqym

      We really have to consider that it is a man, human nature itself that sits at the right hand of God in the Heavens. I believe there's a hymn that speak of the angels being amazed that a man could be raised and glorified so high in reference to the Ascension.pic.twitter.com/oguVULCt9I

      And turning our attention to the angels, in the Wisdom of Solomon, he speaks of "death entering the world through the envy of the devil." The idea that Satan was infuriated at the notion that a material creature, lowly man, could be glorified above the angelic host.pic.twitter.com/JvGuMXNMC6
