The most common understanding of Genesis 3.16a among modern translators and commentators is that Eve was punished with an increase in the physical pain she would experience when she gives birth. This paper suggests that Eve is told she will experience more griefs associated with bearing and raising children. This thesis looks at the most important words in the two lines of the Hebrew text and determines the most likely semantic ranges as well as the proper syntactical connections. This writing then explores the structure and other exegetical questions before providing the author’s translation with commentary. The proposal is then compared to the rest of Genesis in which griefs associated with childrearing are much more involved in the narratives than pain associated with parturition, demonstrating that the author’s conclusions concerning the text most closely match the semantics, the syntax, the exegesis, and the context.
