Explanation
In Genesis, God's instruction to Adam regarding eating is presented as follows:
And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, 'You may surely eat of every tree of the garden, but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.' (Genesis 2:16-17, RSV)
So, God allowed Adam to eat from any tree in the garden except the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
