A Pattern of God's Judicial Proceedings?

A Pattern of God's Judicial Procedure?--Sin/Investigation/Judgement

And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him,

1) Where art thou?

2) Who told thee that thou wast naked?

3) Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat? Genesis 3:9,11

God announces the Verdict: Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee. And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life; Genesis 3:16,17

And the LORD said unto Cain,

2) What hast thou done? Genesis 4:9,10
