Thus just by going by the words of Gen, the death that Adam brought was the spiritual separation from God. That interpretation certainly would not bring cohesion with the rest of scripture in regards to sin and death. I would not agree. The wages of sin being spiritual death makes much more sense than the wages being physical death. What is physical death compared to separation from God?

This verse seems to fit my understanding of it being spiritual death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
