And out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought [them] unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that [was] the name thereof (2:19) And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him (2:20) And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; (2:21) And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. (2:22) com1 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 (2:23) Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh (2:24) And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed
(2:25)
