It's the blame the woman thing. You would think that God should have been saying "As through one woman, Eve, sin came into the world---"
Both were deceived by the same father of lies.
Virtue was lost. Virtue = Two working together in perfect harmony and mutual submissiveness. The peace of God. Loving Father with power and willing participant the Son of man seen, no power . The witness of two . Both yoked together working to finish the propmised demonstration .
Adam was to protect his wife by not adding to the commandment that
was not given to the woman but the husband, the signified head. Adam as a false prophet, false apostle did add . . .neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die
Genesis 3:3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it,
neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
Women as the bride of Christ, Christ our husband represents the whole Church both male and female .Males represent the unseen head of the Christ.
The parable below points to the new order when virtue is restored before the fall.

Proverbs 31:10-31 Who can find a
virtuous woman?
(the church) for
her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in
her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. ...
Another parable in Mark below ..
Again the woman represents the body as the bride of Christ. In the parable virtue when out before its time when we receive our new incorruptible bodies, the consummation of the union in the new heavens and earth . Virtue retuning as before the fall.
Husbands wash your wife with the water of the word, the doctrines of God that fall like rain on green herbs . Unlike Adam who rather added to the word ."Do not touch". like the commandment of lusting after the flesh of a woman or man do not even look with lust adultery is the end . . violating the first commandment no gods before or unseen God to include gods in the likeness of man .
Christ brings back the touch of virtue by a work of His faith or labor of His virtuous Love. . . .
go in peace

Mark 5 :25-34 And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years, And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse, When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and
touched his garment. For
she said, (taking the lead) If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole. And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague. And Jesus,
immediately knowing in himself that
virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes? And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou,
Who touched me? And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing. But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.
(confessing her sin) And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole;
go in peace, and
be whole of thy plague.
