Running with that idea in my own words: by starting to categorize things as tov and ra, we create a differentiation - which becomes a difference/distance between ourselves and g-d. Similarly, death enters the picture the moment we begin engaging in the dualistic point of view (eating the fruit of knowledge of good and bad -> certain death). We begin to sort, "this is good, that is bad, god is here, god is not there, this is lively, that is dead", and we begin to see our own perceptions of things rather than existence as it is. (Only a sith deals in absolutes.)
Jewish practice makes things sacred and holy by honoring and making them different. It's "performative" in the Butlerian sense. We dance with the tension בֵּין קֹדֶשׁ לְחֹל as we strive to recognize that creation is still unfolding, there is no "tov", nor "ra", and we're still in the presence of the holy one.
