Genesis 3:12 - Additional Comments

As man still does today, when confronted with sin, man tends to blame it on someone or something else. See also verse 13. This is a major problem today -- people are unwilling to accept culpability for their actions (or accept that their child is culpable for his) -- it always has to be someone else's fault.
Man effectively blames both God and his wife for his sin.
