If they would have reproduced the normal way, then why didn’t they commence on the command to “multiply and fill the earth” as soon as God created Eve out of Adam’s rib?
There’s no evidence Adam and Eve even tried to reproduce together, until after the fall. Assuming the fall didn’t happen, would Eve have experienced the pain of childbirth?

Sin did bring along pain in childbirth. So yes, assuming the fall never happened childbirth would be as painless as blinking. In response to the first question, lets observe the genealogical record given in Gen 3 onward, we see these guys used to even have kids while they were several hundred years old. SO it should have been a matter of time anyway. Again, this is my guess.

Adam and Eve disobeyed God's command. It's not that prior to eating the fruit they didn't know what was good or what was bad, they knew. That's why Eve said, we were told not to eat... The work of the devil is to steal, kill and destroy. So his bending of the truth to Eve was one of his ways to bring in chaos in the beautiful work of God in creation. Jesus case was however different, unlike Adam and Eve, He did manage to overcome the temptations from the devil. That's why He was able to do more than revert the broken relationship from Adam's disobedience and sin entrance into the world
I wonder if the other animals in Eden were reproducing sexually. Probably not. Because animals must go in heat to reproduce and that brings in the whole animal nature of aggression and dominance yet the Bible says that the animals were gentle, even the lion was as gentle as a lamb. I believe Adam, a being in the image of God, could speak them into existence for replenishment.
Now, how would two people who didn’t know they were naked or what those body parts were for, come to the knowledge of sexual reproduction? Yet God had shown Adam the means of multiplying mankind when he created mankind (Eve) out of his rib and the dust? Clearly, God never did intend children to be born by sex, but it was permitted, which soon will fade away.

Eve was spiritually weaker than Adam because she came out of him, whereas Adam was God’s original creation. Satan could not dare tempt Adam but Adam willingly went along with Eve’s deception not because he believed the lie but to literally save her life.
1 Timothy 2:14. And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner.
If Adam refused to sin with her, it was so easy, God would have killed Eve and then given Adam a new wife. Why did he do it? Love.

You must also remember that Christ came in the flesh, He was 100% human and 100% God. And the norm of us humans (just as He was) we not only struggle against our sinful nature, we live in a fallen world and the devil is till roaming around looking for one to devour. We know that Jesus didn't have that sin nature, however He was still subject to fall in sin (which He didn't) due to the world and the devil. So yes, the devil did try, but he just couldn't. Christ was able to overcome the sinful wiles of the world and the devil. That's why the bible is able to say that He was tempted in everyway (just like us) there's no temptation Jesus didn't face and He overcame it. That's what makes substitutionary atonment.
You know that 100% means totally or completely. So your statement about Jesus Christ being 100% human and 100% God(btw God is a title not the name of any deity) is completely meaningless. Jesus Christ was the son of an earthly mother and Heavenly Father, that makes Him both human and God but not 100% of any of those.
If He had been 100% God, He could be above the limitations of this world and not subjective to any of the struggles that humans face while on this earth. Now that would beat the purpose of Him being a messiah come to Atone for our sins.
Since He was the son of a God, he could not be 100% human.
It’s amazing how we always quote other people’s thoughts as truths without thinking for ourselves and confirming these truths. Then we are further controlled by being told that it’s sacrilegious to question “Things of God”
