2:23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
Ok, so here's Adam, all excited about meeting his rib. And, so he names her Woman, rather than Eve, and calls himself Man.
Why is she flesh of his flesh? Verse 2:21 specifies the rib, not the flesh.
The word "now" makes it seem like he was impatient, meeting all the animals, to find something made out of his bones.

When was the name "Eve" formed. Because, here he names her "woman" Did "God" afterwards choose the name "Eve" for her.
ReplyDeleteAnd this all leads me back, if Adam was asleep and no human was created yet, how do they know that this is actually how the whole series of events happen.
Blind Bigotry I tell you.
The name "Adam" arrives out of nowhere in 2:19. The name "Eve" doesn't occur until 3:20, which is pretty odd. Apparently until then, Adam just called her "Woman".
