'But of the tree of the knowledge...'
Hi,
I find this in the book 'Twilight', but I can't understand. Could you please clarify for me?
But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil,
thou shalt not eat of it:
for in the day that thou eatest thereof
thou shalt surely die
Many thanks,
Nessie.

I think you'll also find it in the book of Genesis, where *** warns Adam and Eve not to eat the fruit of the tree of knowledge, which somehow in tradition became an apple tree.

It is a direct quote from the King James version of the Bible, book of Genesis, Chapter 2, verse17. It is the story of Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden.
