Genesis
God allows the man to eat from every tree of the garden except “the tree of the knowledge of good and evil” Genesis 2:16–17. The warning adds that in the day he eats of it, he will surely die.
16Yahweh God commanded the man, saying, "Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat:
17but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, you shall not eat of it: for in the day that you eat of it you will surely die."
