From the story, there are several assumptions:
1.) God originally meant man to live on a paradise earth.
2.) Death did not exist because there was no sin.
3.) Adam and Eve were meant to procreative.
So, since no one would ever die, wouldnt adam and eve just keep pooping (LOL) out babies until the earth would be overpopulated. I guess god could stop procreation then, but that would make their seaman useless.
So, yeah. Whats the dillio with that?

Adam and Eve wouldn't die but wouldn't procreate either.

Sorry to have to do this...
but I am a ' seaman", a man who goes to sea.
I think you mean...semen...
And you are wrong about overpopulation.'
Just consider how much of the earth cannot be lived on because it is mountain or desert.
some people MAY be there, but struggle.
God has promised, when He again removes death...Revelation 21;4...look it up...
that eveyone will have their own overproductive space.
(Micah 4:4) And they will actually sit, each one under his vine and under his fig tree, and there will be no one making [them] tremble; for the very mouth of Jehovah of armies has spoken [it].
(Psalm 72:16) There will come to be plenty of grain on the earth; On the top of the mountains there will be an overflow. His fruit will be as in Leb′a·non, And those who are from the city will blossom like the vegetation of the earth.
People will 'blossom', will have families...

You are right with all 3 ideas. Not only did God have the earth for us but the entire universe. There was lots of room to grow.

God knew beforehand that adam and eve would sin (sorta weird for sinless beings to actually sin) so he just put the tree there so the world wouldnt overpopulate.

Mankind would either live eternally & therefore not NEED to procreate as much, or man would be taken to Heaven as both Enoch & Elijah were...without ever dying.
