Death
means separation, not cessation or annihilation of life. When Adam ate the forbidden fruit, he died
spiritually in that his relationship with God was severed and he was in danger
of the Lake of Fire which God had prepared for the Devil and his angels (Matt.
25:41). Even though Adam was made
spiritually alive again (Gen. 3:21), he died physically at a later time in his
life (Gen. 5:5).
