Genesis 2:17 in Context — Genesis 2
15 Então o SENHOR Deus tomou o homem, e o pôs no jardim de Éden, para que o lavrasse e o guardasse.
16 E mandou o SENHOR Deus ao homem, dizendo: De toda árvore do jardim comerás;
17 Mas da árvore do conhecimento do bem e do mal não comerás dela; porque no dia que dela comeres, morrerás.
18 E disse o SENHOR Deus: Não é bom que o homem esteja só; farei para ele ajuda idônea para ele.
