God ordained for mankind to work. “Then the Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend (cultivate) and keep it.” (Genesis 2:15) To cultivate is “to prepare land for sowing, to improve or develop something, usually by study or education.” Even though Adam lived in ideal circumstances, it seems he still had to learn about his environment, and work. Later, when the law came, God instructed His people to work for six days a week and rest on the seventh day. God Himself worked for six days in creation. Work is part and parcel of life, but it should not be seen as punishment because it has sure rewards, and they are rich and fulfilling.
