QUESTION?
Gn 3:22 Then the LORD God said: See! The man has become like one of us, knowing good and evil! Now, what if he also reaches out his hand to take fruit from the tree of life, and eats of it and lives forever? Who is "us" that is referred to in the above Bible passage?
ANSWER!
The Catholic understanding of the "us" used in this verse demonstrate that God is a Trinity of persons - Father, Son & Holy Spirit. This is the communication between the Holy Trinity.
