God sees them hiding (honestly, tough guy to play hide-and-seek with), and the bottom falls out of his stomach, verbalized in two questions: “Where are you?”8 There’s a long interpretive tradition in Judaism and early Christianity that sees this first question as an invitation to confession, an invitation Adam and Eve don’t take, leading to a second question.9 “Who told you that you were naked?”10 Said another way, God is asking, “Who stole my children’s innocence?”
