THE BIBLE IN POP CULTURE

You shall neither eat it nor touch it, Genesis 3:3





 

Of the fruit of the tree which is in the center of the garden God has said: 'You shall neither eat of it nor touch it, lest you die.'

In a Princeton University blog, this painting by Paul Gaugin of Tahitian women is described as illustrating the Impressionist painter's search for Eve, with the central figure in the painting reaching for the forbidden fruit.
