Did God Create Eve from Adam’s Rib?

Did God Create
Eve from Adam’s Rib?

From the movie “Moon Struck”, Rose
Castorini wanted an answer to her question she asked; why do men chase woman?

Do Women wonder why Men look
at them as if we are something not of this world or wonder what does He want with
Me, or he’s Creepy or he’s cute? Do Women feel enslaved because God created them
from the Rib of Adam, Man and feel as if they have an unpaid debt to them, Men?

Do Men feel as If they know they
lost Something & are in a frantic search to find it? Do they have an inkling
that Women took it from them somehow but don’t know How, Where or When? Do they
want whatever they Lost to come back to them? Somehow, they end up intrigued,
magnetized, Lost & walking on Clouds when they are within a Women’s Magnetic
Power! They are overcome by them, which is God’s Plan for Man & Woman,
together in Love, Marriage, Children & a beautiful life in this Beautiful World
God created for us, His Children!

Earlier, in making
Adam, God used the “dust of the ground” to form his body and “breathed into his
nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being” (Genesis 2:7). But, in making Eve, God did not go
back to the dust; He used one of Adam’s ribs to form the woman. When she was
brought to Adam, the man said,
“This is now bone of my bones
and flesh of my flesh;
she shall be called ‘woman,’
for she was taken out of man” (verse 23).
God used Adam’s rib to form Eve—He used existing
tissue and did not “start from scratch”—to show that Adam and Eve were of the
same substance; she was made from the same “stuff” and was a bearer of God’s
image and likeness, just as Adam was (see Genesis 1:27). The woman made of Adam’s rib was
designed to be a companion and “helper suitable” for Adam (Genesis 2:18). Eve, formed from a physical part of
Adam, was truly his complement, an integral part of who he was. As such, she
was a perfect companion.
Why did God use Adam’s rib? Interestingly, ribs
have amazing regenerative powers. Portions of rib bone and cartilage removed in
bone graft surgery will regrow in a few months’ time, as long as the rib
perichondrium is left intact. This means that Adam’s loss of a rib was only
temporary; he did not have to go through the rest of his life with an
incomplete skeletal system.
When God brought Eve to Adam, they were united
in marriage: the “woman” in Genesis 2:22 is called Adam’s “wife” in verse
24. The pattern for marriage, the first social institution, was thus
established by God in Eden. The manner of Eve’s creation is “why a man leaves
his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh.”
The unity of a married couple and the “one flesh” principle are based on the fact that
God used one of Adam’s ribs to make the woman.
God’s use of one of Adam’s ribs to make Eve is a
reminder that woman was created to be “beside” man. Together, the man and woman
complement one another in marriage, and in Christ they are “heirs together of
the grace of life” (1 Peter 3:7, NKJV). Visit: prayerscircle.com
