280. Genesis 3:20-24

20. And the man called the name of his wife Eve, because she was to be the mother of all living.

21. And Jehovah God made for the man and his wife coats of skin and clothed them.

22. And Jehovah God said, Behold, the man has become as one of Us, in knowing good and evil; and now by chance he will put out his hand and also take from the tree of life ¹ and eat, and live forever.

23. And Jehovah God sent him out of the garden of Eden to till the ground from which he had been taken.

24. So He expelled the man, and away from the east towards the garden of Eden He caused the cherubim to dwell, and the flame of a sword turning itself this way and that to guard the way to the tree of life. ¹
