    The words"know" & "knowledge" in the Bible often denote an intimate experience rather than information in ones memory, ie "Cain knew his wife and she conceived". Also notice that our verse 17, says "knowledge of" and not knowledge about good and evil. What Adam knew/experienced up till now was only good, very good. The Heb. word for evil (RA) is also translated into 29 other English words such as: trouble, distress, sick, and calamity. "Evil" indicates dreadful misery rather than forbiden delight, as the devil would have us believe. My personal interpretation of this v. 17, is that God was directing goodness for his creation project. He didn't want a painful ruin to overtake it.
