hmm so.. "I give you every herb bearing seed upon the Earth" is followed by "to eat/stuff into nose"?
with this stupidity, maybe you should try eating list of 20 deadly plants and see how it goes?
"ownership" means "edible/nose-able"... maybe you should try eating your car?

It's not always the best use, but that's definitely allowed. It's one of the main uses of herbs.

If you're eating an amount that doesn't hurt anyone, what's the problem?
And the reason to possibly intervene would be someone stockpiling dangerous amounts. Not for enjoying plants wrong.

It would be ridiculous to make that illegal, wouldn't it?
Been a while since I've read Genesis but I don't recall God putting any terms and conditions on it
Tells you to eat every planet, creates plants that are fatally poisonous to humans.
That God fella sure is strange.
Nah he just created all the plants/fruits/etc. and then gave them to Adam and Eve without an instruction manual. Never told them to eat anything in particular. I think it was still a nice gesture.
All of the Bible is T&C’s. God’s goal was to make it longer than Apple’s but he failed. (Ironically Apple was the one fruit Adam and Eve weren’t supposed to eat.)
The words are written in the first chapter of the first book.
Clearly God did not mean “use” as “in turn into rope and strangle other people” (violating other commandments) but nowhere does God say herbs can’t be used for medicine or wine can’t be used for its intoxicating effects, (within some reasonable degree of moderation.)
