Another important fact is, God warned Adam that "on the day" they eat of it, they will die (Gen 2:17), but they didn't die on that day.
(Genesa 2:16, 17) Marito lawa ma swi veka erivaleni leswaku loko Adamu a lo yingisa xileriso xa Xikwembu, a ta va a nga fanga kambe a ta ya emahlweni a hanya entangeni wa Edeni.
