What did the snake mean when he told Chavah that they would be like G-d?
Rashi: Rashi 1 explains as does the Seforno (refer to 3:4:1:2 ); only Rashi adds, "You will be like G-d," to create worlds.
Targum Yonasan: Targum Yonasan: In spite of what he wrote earlier (Refer to 3:4:1:2 ), here he writes, '... and you will be like great angels, who know the distinction between good and evil'.
Gur Aryeh: How do we know that this was the snake's argument? According to the snake, eating the fruit would cause them to be like Hashem; yet that seems to be a reason that Hashem would want them to eat the fruit. Therefore, Rashi interprets that the snake is arguing why Hashem would not want them to, for they would become like Him.
What is "knowledge of good and evil," and why was it so appealing to man?
Maharal (et.al.): Refer to 2:9:3.
