Chavah and Adam

Chavah and Adam ate from the tree of knowledge of good and bad, in Gan Eden. Chavah found a fruit that brings understanding. Part of the fruit, from בְּרֵאשִׁית to מֵחָרָן, a total of 80 words, she gave to Adam to eat. The remainder, 400 words, she ate herself. It was good for their innards to eat from the tree of knowledge of good and bad, it was truly sweet like honey.

Then, they found themselves outside of Gan Eden, and they found it very hard to say the words that they ate in Gan Eden. Instead of the 400 words of Gan Eden, there was a different section of 400 words for Chavah to learn. Instead of the 80 words of Gan Eden, 800 words were given to Adam to learn. The section of Adam shares 100 words, from וְנָתַתִּי גִשְׁמֵיכֶם until קוֹמְמִיּוּת, with the section of Chavah. Against these 100 words, Adam had to learn 100 Sugyot, in Exile.

When Chavah and Adam teach their intuitive knowledge to each other, the knowledge from Gan Eden, it is as if both ate the whole fruit. And when they teach to each other the result of their learning outside of Gan Eden, Chavah and Adam are complete. And when they will be complete, a hundred blessings, bestowed on Israel and on mankind, will be the sign.
