Genesis 2
Adam being the great witness from God as he was, was the one to name and give the names to each everything. What does name here mean? Does it mean some sounds used to symbolize it or God reminding that everything got it's reality from God's witnessing it for what it is, and chose Adam to inform of the "names" of all things for what they are.
Adam teacher of the names and true identity of all things, was a witness from God.
I looked at the translations of the rivers and these seem to be symbolic and will be important to recall later in the bible.
The tree he was not suppose to be spoken for obviously had to do with the formless previous nature of the universe, which now manifested in many stages and levels, and multiplicity.
When Adam slept perhaps it was symbolic that he was made to forget a part of himself, which God hid from him, and then created it with Eve and so that he would due to that slumber find a companion and not be alone.
This is important to see because we will see both Adam and Eve seek to transcend their nature by eating of the forbidden fruit. And so they were a little heedless of their humanity and on a mission to get to proximity to God in which ironically they already had in a form that humans would later all crave and want to return to that garden.
Genesis 3
Eve's intention obviously was to obey God in beginning, but as she was tricked, that God meant by dying that you will leave your current form and transcend into those higher beings in the place of proximity of God and you will see as they see, and know the knowledge they know.
They weren't hateful or willfully disobedient to God, but, thought God advised them only so they continue to enjoy the garden. And then they thought it was a trial and the real thing God wants them to do is eat of the tree and that he forbid them only to see if they loved him enough to transcend that.
The snake knew Adam and Eve had a weakness, and that was, they loved God more than anything and hence were naturally biased to wanting to get closer to him.
He took advantage of that.
And this important in defining sin.
Sin is not only always malevolent, it can have the best of intentions. Adam and Eve were blinded by love and they took a course of action based on someone they knew they could not fully trust even though he swore by God, and when he swore by God, due to their truthful nature believed him.
This also making head way with the issue of "eye of jealousy".
Although Adam and Eve didn't wish any bad on anyone with that sense of envy, their eating of the tree was obviously symbolic of do not come with jealous eyes wanting to attain this place of proximity of these exalted high chosen ones. Be satisfied with what I have given you and do not come near this tree.
We will see this jealousy takes on worse forms with the story of two sons of Adam, and also will be a common theme in telling the story of the household of Abraham and the chosen Kings from his offspring.
And although Adam and Eve didn't wish evil on anyone, it harmed themselves. We will see later that this jealousy can take forms of evil envy to the extent of murder.
And it's common theme through out.
