Yes. Adam chose to join Eve. Adam became "like" Eve.
The Lord Jesus Christ became "like" us. He came in the "likeness" of sinful flesh ... Romans 8:3-4 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
What an awesome Savior we have!!! Praise God for His eternal purpose which He purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord!!!

Both Eve and Adam were deceived by the serpent because as we read in verse 6, Eve ate of the forbidden fruit and then gave some to Adam who was with her.
It does not state, then Eve sought out Adam and gave some to him and he ate it.
By Adam's disobedience of God's command not to eat of that tree, sin came into the world. The scriptures don't tell us because of Eve , who ate first, with her husband beside her, did sin enter the world.
And in Jesus there was no sin. He appeared as a man in flesh, but there was no sin in him at all.
So it will not be a physical earth? And the city which descends out of heaven from God, the holy Jerusalem, is not a physical city even though it has walls which can be measured, a foundation, gates, and the nations shall walk in it?
Revelation 21:
10 And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
11 Having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal;
12 And had a wall great and high, [and] had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel:
13 On the east three gates; on the north three gates; on the south three gates; and on the west three gates.
14 And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15 And he that talked with me had a golden reed to measure the city, and the gates thereof, and the wall thereof.
16 And the city lieth foursquare, and the length is as large as the breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs. The length and the breadth and the height of it are equal.
17 And he measured the wall thereof, an hundred and forty and four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of the angel.
18 And the building of the wall of it was of jasper: and the city was pure gold, like unto clear glass.
19 And the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, a chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald;
20 The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, a topaz; the tenth, a chrysoprasus; the eleventh, a jacinth; the twelfth, an amethyst.
21 And the twelve gates were twelve pearls; every several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass.
22 And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.
23 And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.
24 And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it.
25 And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there.
26 And they shall bring the glory and honour of the nations into it.
27 And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.

1 Timothy 2:14 tells us Eve was deceived ... Adam was not deceived.
1 Timothy 2:14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
Even though Eve was deceived (hoodwinked, thoroughly taken in), she was in the transgression along with Adam (who was not deceived when he ate of the tree of knowledge of good and evil).
We understand from Gen 3 that Eve knew she should not eat. In reading the exchange between Eve and satan, Eve changed God's Word. We have nothing to stand on if/when we change God's Word and we end up being deceived by the father of lies.
Yes, Romans 5:12 tells us Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
Yes!!!

Remember, the Saint Apostle Paul wrote Epistles wherein he was inspired by God to write them, and he wrote his own observations and opinions as well.
Beguiled is synonymous with deception, so perhaps we can agree that Adam was beguiled by Eve to eat. Even though he was there when the serpent spoke and led Eve to eat first.
Adam was to be the head of the wife, so perhaps that is why Paul put the blame on Eve and not Adam. But since through Adam sin entered the world, we can say Adam's disobedience was more costly for the world.
This is true... and the New Jerusalem comes down from heaven to the new earth
God alone dwells in immortality. A&E were not created immortal. Created to BE immortal perhaps, but they had to eat of the Tree of Life to attain that status, and we know they did not
Revelation 22:2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
And we will live in new heaven and new earth ... we shall see His face ... we shall know even as also we are known!!! Hallelujah!!!
how do you get Adam was deceived when the scripture plainly says he was not deceived?
I don't get that
1 Timothy 2:14 King James Version (KJV)
14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.

Instructions on Worship
2 I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people— 2 for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. 3 This is good, and pleases God our Savior, 4 who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. 5 For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus, 6 who gave himself as a ransom for all people. This has now been witnessed to at the proper time. 7 And for this purpose I was appointed a herald and an apostle—I am telling the truth, I am not lying—and a true and faithful teacher of the Gentiles.
8 Therefore I want the men everywhere to pray, lifting up holy hands without anger or disputing. 9 I also want the women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, adorning themselves, not with elaborate hairstyles or gold or pearls or expensive clothes, 10 but with good deeds, appropriate for women who profess to worship God.
11 A woman[a] should learn in quietness and full submission. 12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man;[b] she must be quiet. 13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner. 15 But women[c] will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith, love and holiness with propriety.
Deceived (at the scripture link above)
ἀπατάω (apataō)
Strong: G538
GK: G572
to deceive, seduce into error, Eph. 5:6; 1 Tim. 2:14; Jas. 1:26 )
Where in Genesis chapter 3 are we told women shall be saved through childbearing?
The Timothy texts, 1st and 2nd, are thought to be written by Paul, but some scholars believe also it may have been authored by an anonymous Christian. Whatever the case , 1st Timothy is Paul's letter to the church. His opinions and instructions throughout.
Paul's observation concerning Eve alone puts Eve responsible for being deceived by the serpent that both Adam and Eve encountered together. Because as we read Paul's opinion of women's place in the church, the man was to be the head of the woman, yet he blamed the woman for being deceived when she was right there with Adam, who Paul believed should have been her head even then.
Adam heard the command of God not to eat of the forbidden fruit first. He was created before Eve.
Adam knew he was wrong to eat of the fruit, but did anyway. Not because Eve deceived him when Adam was there hearing the serpent persuade Eve to eat , and Adam ate anyway. Being first to hear God's command not to.
Paul does not permit a woman to teach. Yet there were women Apostles, that Paul recognized and even praised.
I think this may be one of the causes behind some scholars thinking an anonymous Christian wrote 1st Timothy , perhaps even 2nd.
Paul doesn't permit women to teach or assume authority over a man, but he praises them for being Apostles? Which is a teacher of the word.
And the authority part can be why he accuses Eve of deception of the man, Adam. Because Paul does not respect a woman can have authority over a man. But deception is something else. That's not authority, that's beguilement.
1 Timothy
Theme
Paul writes to instruct Timothy concerning the care of the church at Ephesus.
Overview
This is the first of Paul’s epistles to the young pastor Timothy. In it, according to the King James Study Bible, he exhorts Timothy to guard against false doctrine, protect public worship, and develop mature leadership. Much of the epistle deals with the nature of pastoral conduct, including the qualifications of a bishop (pastor) as a true teacher of God’s Word. Practical directions for elders and for widows are also given in detail.

The Book of Genesis chapter 3:
16 To the woman he said,
“I will make your pains in childbearing very severe;
with painful labor you will give birth to children.
Your desire will be for your husband,
and he will rule over you.”
17 To Adam he said, “Because you listened to your wife and ate fruit from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘You must not eat from it,’
“Cursed is the ground because of you;
through painful toil you will eat food from it
all the days of your life.
18 It will produce thorns and thistles for you,
and you will eat the plants of the field.
19 By the sweat of your brow
you will eat your food
until you return to the ground,
since from it you were taken;
for dust you are
and to dust you will return.”
20 Adam[c] named his wife Eve,[d] because she would become the mother of all the living.
How do we know this? Can you provide chapter / verse which states this?
According to 1 Tim 2:14 Adam was not deceived. And Adam was not deceived
I do not know that Adam "heard" directly from satan. I believe satan approached Eve when she was alone. No Adam there to persuade her to not eat. Divide and conquer.
We don't know that Adam was there when satan approached Eve. If you can show me a verse which specifically states that Adam was with Eve when satan spoke to her, I will fully agree with your statement that he was there with her, that he heard satan and Eve's discussion.
Although if that is the case, why would Adam remain silent? No "C'mon Eve, let's get out of here. Forget that serpent. Don't do it".
2 Corinthians 11:3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty ...
Again, if you have chapter and verse which states Adam was with Eve when satan spoke to her, please provide it. Thank you.

The statement saved in childbearing in 1 Tim 2 refers back to Gen 3:15 and the seed of the woman:
Genesis 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
All mankind is saved through Messiah ... not just the "woman".
Genesis 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
