Eve

  
The Creation of Eve, as depicted on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, part of Michelangelo’s masterpiece.

The name 'Eve' comes from the Hebrew word חַוָּה or 'Chava,' a form of the word for life, which is why she is called 'the mother of all living.' She represents the church, and is called 'mother' because this was the first Church of all, and 'living' because of its faith in the Lord, who is life itself.

380. Verse 12 When you till the ground, it will not yield its strength a wanderer and a fugitive you will be in the land.

'Tilling the ground' means cultivating this schism or heresy. 'Not yielding its strength to you' means that it is sterile. 'Being a wanderer and a fugitive in the land' means not knowing what truth and good are.
