According to the words of Lehi men did not become free when they partook of the fruit to know good and evil—that was the fall—rather, they became free when they were redeemed from the fall through the Atonement of Christ. At that point they had a knowledge of God and evil which they had previously lacked and they had a path to exaltation which, without the work of their Redeemer, had previously been foreclosed.
