“Ask a Priest: Did Adam and Eve Know About the Devil?”

/ Ask a Priest
Q: Did Adam and Eve know of the existence of Satan before the Fall? – E.T.

Answered by Fr. Edward McIlmail, LC

A: While the Catholic Church has always held that the devil is real, that doesn’t mean that Adam and Eve knew of his existence explicitly.

The biblical text, in fact, seems to indicated that Adam and Eve didn’t understand who they were dealing with when they had their fateful encounter in the Garden of Eden. Two reasons come to mind.

First, neither Adam nor Eve mention the devil. Eve only refers to the “serpent” or “snake” (Genesis 3:13), not “Satan” or “the devil.”

Second, the text itself never identifies the talking snake with Satan or any other demonic being. (Talking animals were a stock literary device in ancient writings.) The ancient Israelites who compiled the Book of Genesis likely didn’t have a notion of Satan as we understand the term today. The serpent could have simply symbolized an evil inclination that tempted humans.

The Book of Job mentions “the satan,” meaning an adversary or a prosecutor, but one who is an agent of God.

Christianity had a clearer idea of the devil – thanks to Matthew 4:1-11 and 12:22-30; Mark 1:34; Luke 10:18 and 22:31; and John 8:44, and other texts — and we tend to read that understanding back into the Old Testament texts.

Old Testament material, like all of the Bible, was transmitted orally before it was written down. Since the Genesis account doesn’t mention Satan, it’s reasonable to assume that the first humans who passed on the story of the Fall didn’t have a clear understanding of the devil.

Alex Kucera has lived in Atlanta, GA, for the last 46 years. He is one of 9 children, married to his wife Karmen, and has 3 girls, one grandson, and a granddaughter on the way. Alex joined Regnum Christi in 2007. Out of the gate, he joined the Helping Hands Medical Missions apostolate and is still participating today with the Ghana Friendship Mission.

In 2009, Alex was asked to be the Atlanta RC Renewal Coordinator for the Atlanta Locality to help the RC members with the RC renewal process. Alex became a Group Leader in 2012 for four of the Atlanta Men’s Section Teams and continues today. Running in parallel, in 2013, Alex became a Team Leader and shepherded a large team of good men.

Alex was honored to be the Atlanta Mission Coordinator between 2010 to 2022 (12 years), coordinating 5-8 Holy Week Mission teams across Georgia. He also created and coordinated missions at a parish in Athens, GA, for 9 years. Alex continues to coordinate Holy Week Missions, Advent Missions, and Monthly missions at Good Shepherd Catholic Church in Cumming, GA.

From 2016 to 2022, Alex also served as the Men’s Section Assistant in Atlanta. He loved working with the Men’s Section Director, the Legionaries, Consecrated, and Women’s Section leadership teams.

Alex is exceptionally grateful to the Legionaries, Consecrated, and many RC members who he’s journeyed shoulder to shoulder, growing his relationship with Christ and others along the way. He knows that there is only one way, that’s Christ’s Way, with others!
