Bible: Gen 1:26; 2:21-24
1:26 Then God said, “Let us make 1
humankind 2 in our image, after our likeness, 3 so they may rule 4 over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the cattle, and over all the earth, 5 and over all the creatures that move 6 on the earth.”
2:21 So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep, 1 and while he was asleep, 2 he took part of the man’s side 3 and closed up the place with flesh. 4 2:22 Then the Lord God made 5 a woman from the part he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. 2:23 Then the man said,
“This one at last 6 is bone of my bones
and flesh of my flesh;
this one will be called 7 ‘woman,’
for she was taken out of 8 man.” 9
2:24 That is why 10 a man leaves 11 his father and mother and unites with 12 his wife, and they become a new family. 13
