Genesis 3:23

New English Translation

²³So the Lord God expelled him^[a] from the orchard in Eden to cultivate the ground from which he had been taken.

Genesis 3:23 tn The verb is the Piel preterite of שָׁלַח (shalakh), forming a wordplay with the use of the same verb (in the Qal stem) in v. 22: To prevent the man’s “sending out” his hand, the Lord “sends him out.”

Genesis 3:23

New International Version

²³So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden^(A) to work the ground^(B) from which he had been taken.
