Did Adam and Eve know God's Law, and how. When Adam was created, God was there and Adam learned and gained understanding of God and His character directly from the source. Eve too, had a primary relationship with God. Everything they saw was created by God. All their activity or 'work' involved the things God had created, which provided a lesson into the will and ways of God. God came and visited with them regularly and walked with them and let them know His will.
To Adam and Eve, the commandments or what pleased God were clear or 'transparent', as one would be with a friend. They patterned their lives after a divine role model or what God did. At the start, it did not even occur to them to do otherwise. Their lives were full what God had given them in understanding and with much joy of having Him with them and purpose. Day by day as they grasped deeper in what is meant, they kept God's Law of love as He was their role model, but just as Satan worked on the angels and made them doubt God, so he brought doubt to man.......
Man was created in the very image of God, and God was his teacher including on everything he was given dominion over.
"And God said. Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let him have dominion over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them." Gen. 1:26, 27
