Tafsiran Kejadian 3:16: Rashi, Bekhor Shor, Chizkuni & Da'at Zekenim

עצבנך THY PAIN — viz., the trouble of rearing children (Eruvin 100b).

And to the woman He said, "How many evils have you caused yourself! Until now you didn't need to bear children, because you were not [destined] to die. But from now on, you will need to bear children, because you will surely die. If you don't give birth, the world will dissolve, since you will die. So therefore, 'I will increase [...] your pregnancy' - and that is 'your pain' - because 'in pain will you bear children.' For how much pain is there with children: The pain of pregnancy, the pain of birth and the pain of raising [them]. And don't fool yourself to say, 'I'll nullify the commandment of being fruitful, just as I nullified the commandment of the tree of knowledge, such that I won't sleep with my husband.'" That is why it is written, your longing will be for your husband - that you will desire him. And if you say, "I will conquer my impulse because of the pain" - it is hence stated and he will rule over you, so he will take you against your will.

אל האשה אמר, “to the woman He had said:” the gentiles asked Rabbi Joshua why the woman was punished for eating from a tree, seeing that she had not even been created yet when G-d issued the prohibition to eat from it to Adam. He replied that the Torah did not write that G-d forbade eating from the tree “to” Adam, but that it worded it as a general prohibition including the human species, by writing: על האדם, “concerning all his limbs and sinews,” or “the human species,” i.e. himself and all his offspring. (Compare 2,16) Woman, after all, had been constructed from what had been part of his body. A different exegesis: the woman had included herself in the prohibition when she had told the serpent that G-d had forbidden, quoting Him in the plural mode: לא תאכלו ממנו, “you (pl) must not eat from it.” (3,4).
