The curse that Jehovah God had placed on the ground meant that cultivation was going to be a far greater task than it would have been had Adam not sinned.
Genesis 3:17 BDC: How is it that the ground would be cursed for Adam, and for how long?

Genesis 3:6 BDC: She [Eve] also gave some to her husband who was with her?
