2:22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
So, rather than making a woman out of mud, God makes a woman out of a man's rib. This explains why a typical woman is roughly the height and shape of a typical man's rib. Or it explains why women cause so much heartache. Or maybe Adam just was the sort of guy who was attracted to his own bones. Wait, that's not even a fetish.
I have no idea what to say. This is completely surreal.
Were all the female animals made from ribs from the male animals? Was God only bringing male animals to Adam before? What about animals without ribs; where did the females come from then?

This is kind of inconsistent, here in this verse, the word "woman" was deprived. And then when you move on to verse 23, the bible clearly states that "Adam" named her "woman."
ReplyDeleteGood point about the other animals. I think "God" wanted "Adam" to look at her as not just a regular creation but a piece of himself. Which is kind weird if you look at it.
mmmm profundo, profundo
