The tree from which Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit was one of only two trees that differed in all respects from the ordinary trees of the world.

To eat of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, as Adam and Eve did, meant becoming like gods, as God later says (Genesis 3:22: "And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us..."), except that they were still mortal.

The Tree of Life conferred immortality. Because Adam and Eve had eaten of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, they now knew the evil that they must one day die. They also knew that by eating of the Tree of Life they could become immortal. God had no choice but to banish them from the Garden of Eden and place at the entrance of the Garden, cherubim and a flaming sword to keep [block] the way of the Tree of Life.

The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, and the Tree of Life were common motifs in ancient Near Eastern and Greek cultures.
