The Hebrew word for belly or womb is beten בטן
The word picture is the house that surrounds life.
"The abdomen (commonly called the belly) is the body space between the thorax (chest) and pelvis. The diaphragm forms the upper surface of the abdomen. At the level of the pelvic bones, the abdomen ends and the pelvis begins.
The abdomen contains all the digestive organs, including the stomach, small and large intestines, pancreas, liver, and gallbladder. These organs are held together loosely by connecting tissues (mesentery) that allow them to expand and to slide against each other. The abdomen also contains the kidneys and spleen." - Web MD
These organs produce and process things for our body that provide us with life. The word picture is also of a womb with a baby which represents life.

Lets start from the beginning...It is Good...
31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, [it was] very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. (Gen 1:31 KJV)
9 And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil. (Gen 2:9 KJV)
The Hebrew word for good is Tov טוֹב
The word picture says that good is what surrounds and is inside (the outside and the inside are the same - there is no deception) - Hebrew Word Pictures~ Dr Frank T Seekins
God is good and what he created is declared good (that's includes you and me).
The serpent deceives causing to listen to another voice causing to leave the surrounding and covering of life in God and be surrounded by other voice. The voice of death!
The choice in the garden was between the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil (being wise in own eyes). This deceptive appetite drove the decision thus causing separation.
It's interesting to see the curse the Lord put on the serpent, to be driven upon and by the belly.
14 And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou [art] cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life: (Gen 3:14 KJV)
The Hebrew picture for Satan is שָׂטָן . an adversary that devours life
The woman was deceived to listen to the voice of another for the satisfaction of her belly and Adam followed suit. The belly was looking to fill a hunger of being wise in her own eyes. The Hebrew word Ta'ah is the twisting of the eye to deceive and lead astray.
We have twisted appetites and hungers in our belly causing all of us to be sick and deceived eventually driven to our god being our belly abandoning fellowship and relationship with the source of life.
25 The righteous eateth to the satisfying of his soul: but the belly of the wicked shall want. (Pro 13:25 KJV)
19 Whose end [is] destruction, whose God [is their] belly, and [whose] glory [is] in their shame, who mind earthly things.) (Phl 3:19 KJV)
This is our adversaries plan. His voice.
8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: (1Pe 5:8 KJV)
How do we stop the madness? Reconnect back to the source of life.
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. (Jhn 3:16-18 KJV)
Be reconciled
16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: (Eph 2:16 KJV)
20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, [I say], whether [they be] things in earth, or things in heaven. (Col 1:20 KJV)
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. (Rom 10:9-11 KJV)
When we are One with the Father, we can speak the heart of the Father into the earth as Yeshua did.
20 A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; [and] with the increase of his lips shall he be filled. (Pro 18:20 KJV)
We can truly worship God in spirit and truth
23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. 24 God [is] a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship [him] in spirit and in truth. (Jhn 4:23-24 KJV)
Yeshua declares...
38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. (Jhn 7:38 KJV)
