I had a similar moment earlierwhen I found a quote saying 'as Adam from adamah, so isha from ish' a lovely phrase looking at hebrew etymology 'as man from earth, so woman from man' a charming turn of phrase initially recognises the shared essence of all three (i.e. one came from the other) that after the biting of the apple serves to distance them (one is seperate from the other)
