Gen 3:17–19: the ground cursed; dust to dust

Says The sentence opens וּלְאָדָם אָמַר; the OSHB tags וּלְאָדָם as the name Adam, but לְאָדָם at 3:21 as the common noun, and the BSB has "Adam" at both. Where the name begins is set out in note.language.Gen.2.5-Gen.2.25.adam-ha-adam. The ground is cursed, אֲרוּרָה הָאֲדָמָה בַּעֲבוּרֶךָ, "cursed is the ground because of you" (see var.Gen.3.17.because-of-you); the man is not. בְּעִצָּבוֹן תֹּאכֲלֶנָּה, "in toil you will eat of it," uses the noun of 3:16, עִצְּבוֹנֵךְ. The ground will sprout וְקוֹץ וְדַרְדַּר (BDB "thornbush, thorn"; "thistles (coll.)"). He will eat bread עַד שׁוּבְךָ אֶל־הָאֲדָמָה, "until you return to the ground," כִּי מִמֶּנָּה לֻקָּחְתָּ, "for from it you were taken," כִּי־עָפָר אַתָּה, "for dust you are," וְאֶל־עָפָר תָּשׁוּב, "and to dust you shall return." The ground, הָאֲדָמָה, is the ground of 2:7. Swete has ἐπικατάρατος ἡ γῆ ἐν τοῖς ἔργοις σου and, for dust, ὅτι γῆ εἶ καὶ εἰς γῆν ἀπελεύσῃ.

Implies The death threatened in 2:17, מוֹת תָּמוּת, is carried out in the return to dust (3:19) and in 5:5, וַיָּמֹת, as note.language.Gen.2.16-Gen.2.17.in-the-day-you-eat and note.language.Rom.5.12-Rom.5.14.gen-2-3-adam read it. Rom 8:20 alludes to this curse on the ground, and the one who subjected creation is God, who alone pronounces the curse in 3:17 (note.language.Rom.8.20.gen-3-17-19; xref.Rom.8.20.Gen.3.17-Gen.3.19.heb; xref.Rom.5.12.Gen.3.17-Gen.3.19.heb).
