Comments
From this passage we know that there is "the spirit of the day" (and probably "spirit of the night").
It seems that the main reason of come of Yahweh in this occurrence was not to meet with Adam but to refresh the day (to regulate the weather).
From Gen. 3:13 it is clear that Eve has understood that she did wrong (the serpent has deceived her). Probably she has understood that her state has become worse, see also Theology:Fall_of_the_man.
