So God made people in his own image. God made people as a copy of himself. [7] God made them male and female.
Then the Lord God said, “I see that it is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a person like him to help him.”
The Lord God used the rib from the man to make a woman. Then the Lord God brought the woman to the man.
Then the Lord God took dust from the ground and made a man. [9] The Lord breathed the breath of life into the man’s nose, and the man became a living thing.

Adam [20] named his wife Eve. [21] Adam gave her this name because Eve is the mother of every person who ever lived.
