פירוש על קהלת 7:29

See, this only have I found. And which brought to the world a stumbling block through her.

“But, see, this I have found: God made man upright, but they have sought many schemes” (Ecclesiastes 7:29).
“But, see, this I have found: God made man upright” – he was upright, as it is stated: “God made man upright,” and it is written: “Behold, man has become like one of us” (Genesis 3:22) – like one of the ministering angels. When they became two, “but they have sought many schemes.”

That [God] made. The Holy One, Blessed Is He [created] Adam perfectly upright.⁶⁹As God stated in Bereishis 3:22 regarding Adam, “Behold, the man has become like one of us to know [what is] good and [what is] evil.”
