Adam and Eve were presented with two trees in the Garden of Eden, the Tree of Knowledge and the Tree of Life.
They ate from the Tree of Knowledge, knowing (instantaneously) all things good and evil.
However, later in scripture, in Proverbs, wisdom is called a Tree of Life.
If Adam and Eve had eaten from both trees, they would have had the ability to discern good FROM evil, but all they chose was knowledge without the ability to tell the difference.
In other words, when given the choice between knowledge and wisdom, choose wisdom (or both if you can).
