Genesis 2:16

¹⁶וַיְצַו יְהוָה אֱלֹהִים עַל־הָאָדָם לֵאמֹר מִכֹּל עֵץ־הַגָּן אָכֹל תֹּאכֵל ׃g

Genesis 2 shifts focus from the cosmic creation account to a more intimate, anthropocentric narrative, detailing the formation of humanity and the establishment of the Garden of Eden. It elaborates on the creation of Adam from the dust of the ground, the breath of life, and the divine command regarding the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. The chapter culminates in the creation of Eve from Adam's rib, establishing the foundation for marriage and human companionship, and portraying an initial state of innocence and perfect relationship between God and humanity.
