"In July, 1895, Mrs. White determined to manifest her interest in the school enterprise and her confidence in the Avondale estate, by purchasing a piece of the land, and making Cooranbong her home. She selected sixty- six acres, and in a few weeks had a portion of her family living in tents on the tract, which she named “Sunnyside.” The erection of an eight-roomed cottage was begun; and as soon as a clearing could be made, land was plowed, and fruit trees were planted. Of this experience she wrote: LS 358.2"
"Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelled in the cities of the plain, and pitched his tent toward Sodom."
Both passages involve pitching tents and dwelling in a specific location. EGW's passage describes her family living in tents while establishing a home, echoing the general idea of temporary dwelling found in Genesis 13:12.
"“When the foundation of the house was laid, preparations were made for the raising of fruit and vegetables. The Lord had shown me that the poverty which existed about Cooranbong need not be; for with industry the soil could be cultivated, and made to yield its treasure for the service of man.” LS 358.3"
"In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return."
The EGW passage directly addresses the idea that the soil can be cultivated through industry to provide for man, which is a direct reversal of the curse in Genesis 3:19, where labor is tied to hardship. It's a principle of redemption through labor.
