I believe that spiritual death would eventually come, you know the second death. However it would be progressive and indeed a mirror of the death that was do come eventually for Adam at 930 and now shame we barely live a tenth of that and we die, to pass onto either the second death or eternal life.

I do not have enough time to really get deeper in right now, but I spied this segment of Robertsons Word Pictures and it was a pretty find exegesis. I thought?

The passage is Romans 5:12 (I hope we will still be looking at Genesis 3 to see if there is any reference to this. Extra revelation given to the Apostles, or in the old testament as to the condition of Adam and Eve after Eden is what would be most needful to reach end game on this one. Have fun, I know I love Genesis very much.)

Quote
And so death passed unto all men (kai houtos eis pantas anthropous dielthen). Note use of dierchomai rather than eiserchomai, just before, second aorist active indicative in both instances. By “death” in Gen_2:17; Gen_3:19 physical death is meant, but in Rom_5:17, Rom_5:21 eternal death is Paul’s idea and that lurks constantly behind physical death with Paul.

Over to ye scholars and Hebrew experts.
