GEN361 [Adam] disobeyed the commandment that was imposed upon him on account of his intellect and, attaining the apprehension of generally accepted opinions, he became absorbed with considering things base or noble.  The he new how great his loss was, what he had been deprived of, and upon what a state he had entered.  Hence it is said [this verse] and not: knowing the false and the true, or apprehending the false and the true.  EWM 131-2
