There is labour in hunting, but the curse was specifically speaking of toil with the ground for man's sake, which God did in Genesis 3.

Would the rest simply be referring to the flood and God promising that would not happen again?

Thanks again! Seriously, I knew you would be the first to respond to this thread! LOL!
Seems there is a lot involved in the rest.

I love Genesis' first few chapters!
