What does the Bible say about death through Adam?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that death entered the world through Adam's sin, and thus all humans are affected by this curse.

According to Romans 5:12, by one man, Adam, sin entered into the world, and death through sin. This signifies that all humanity is subject to death as a result of Adam's transgression. Genesis 2:17 reveals that God warned Adam that eating from the forbidden tree would lead to death, which encompasses both physical and spiritual death. Thus, Adam's act of disobedience not only introduced mortality but also estrangement from God, resulting in the death of spiritual life within humanity.
