Christian Boone · Answer 1

Adam and Eve eat the apples to gain knowledge but at the cost of their promise to God, thus contributing to the theme of Betrayal.

Option B.

Explanation:

Eve in the story ate a fruit which was said to the fruit of knowledge. This fruit was ate by Eve to get knowledge and be intelligent. She also gave some of this to Adam.

This came as a betrayal to God because both of them had promised to god that they will both not eat it. But in the greed of knowledge, they ate it and broke the promise.
