 <\/p>\n

The newly created humans were not only physically beautiful but also supremely wise. They understood, without being told explicitly, that the tree whose fruit God had forbidden them to eat was in itself neither particularly beneficial nor particularly harmful. There are no magical trees, except in fairy tales, and God did not place poisonous fruits in the Garden that He himself had planted. No, the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, from which Adam and Eve were commanded to abstain, was indistinguishable from the other trees in Paradise in all respects save one. That one respect was the prohibition itself, as a sign of human obedience. If God had chosen some other object in the Garden on which to establish this sign, then the fruit would have been perfectly fine to eat. Why then was it called the tree of the knowledge of good and evil? Not to refer to any inherent quality in the fruit but only to refer to the result of transgression: the knowledge of the good that would have followed from obedience and the knowledge of the evil that resulted from the failure to obey. (Augustine)<\/p>\n

*<\/p>\n

There were many trees in the garden, each lovely to look at and good for food, but two trees at its midst were particularly notable: the tree of life and the tree of knowledge, good, and evil. God told the human that he could eat the fruit of every tree in the garden, but He commanded him not to eat of the tree of knowledge, good, and evil: \u201cFor on the day you eat from it, you are doomed to die.\u201d \u00a0The human listened and grasped that something very important was being told to him, but it was only after the divine words had faded away that he realized he had no idea what the words \u201cdoomed to die\u201d meant. He told himself to ask God for a proper explanation the next time he saw Him.\u00a0<\/p>\n

God told the human that he could eat the fruit of every tree in the garden, but He commanded him not to eat of the tree of knowledge, good, and evil. The human understood from these words that he was allowed to eat the fruit of the tree of life, which indeed looked quite appetizing. But he had already just sated his hunger on the first few nondescript trees he had come upon, and for the moment he had no desire to eat another thing. He told himself to try the tree of life very soon.<\/p>\n

There were many trees in the garden, each lovely to look at and good for food. God told the human that he could eat the fruit of every tree in the garden, but He commanded him not to eat of the tree of knowledge, good, and evil. Adam heard the chilling words and understood them. But as soon as the sound of the words died away, he realized that he had no idea which of the innumerable trees in the garden was the one whose fruit he had been warned not to eat. True, all the trees were not perfectly identical, but there was nothing so obvious about the forbidden tree\u2014nothing so striking in its bark or its girth, or the flowers that it bore or the color and shape of its fruit\u2014to fix it forever in his memory. He looked around, and in every direction there were trees, all of them beautiful and inviting. He stared up at the fruit that each of them bore, and he was hungry and afraid.<\/p>\n
