18 And the Lord God said, "Itis not good that man should be alone; 1 Cor. 11:8, 9; 1 Tim. 2:13I will make him a helper comparable to him." 20 So Adam gave names to all cattle, to the birds of the air, and to every beast of the field. But for Adam there was not found a helper comparable to him.
21 And the Lord God caused a Gen. 15:12; 1 Sam. 26:12deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. 22 Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, Gen. 3:20; 1 Tim. 2:13and He Heb. 13:4brought her to the man.
23 And Adam said:
"This is now Gen. 29:14; Eph. 5:28–30bone of my bones
And flesh of my flesh;
She shall be called Woman,
Because she was 1 Cor. 11:8, 9taken out of Man."
