This is an embellishment of God’s command from Genesis 2:17, where He tells Adam that if he eats of the fruit of this tree, he will surely die. Whether Adam embellished to Eve to make his point or Eve misspoke to the serpent is unclear. In any event, by not accurately repeating God’s command, Eve was opening herself up to the serpent’s deception.
