קבלה על בראשית 3:3

And what is "the land"? As you say 'I was knit together in the depths of the earth' (Ps. 139:15). And this is the explanation: 'let the earth' it is obvious, behold, from the earth all types of living things come from, as we explain, this is the spirit of the First Human, as it is written, "and from the fruit of the tree inside the garden" (Gen. 3:3). 'And from the fruit of the tree' this is the Holy Blessed One, 'that is inside the garden' that is inside the woman, we teach, this is why "a woman, when she gives seed, and bears a male" (Lev. 12:2) is written. And does not include male and female, according to the ways of the world, that we made happen in the world, that they do not join together, as they come out from above in pairs.
