The Man and Woman in Eden

4This is the account of the creation of the heavens and the earth. When the LORD God made the earth and the heavens,H428H8435H8064H776H1254H3117H3068H430H6213H776H80645neither wild plants nor grains were growing on the earth. For the LORD God had not yet sent rain to water the earth, and there were no people to cultivate the soil.H7880H7704H2962H776H6212H7704H2962H6779H3588H3068H430H3808H4305H776H369H120H5647H1276Instead, springsc came up from the ground and watered all the land.H5927H108H4480H776H8248H6440H1277Then the LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground. He breathed the breath of life into the man's nostrils, and the man became a living person.H3068H430H3335H120H6083H4480H127H5301H639H5397H2416H120H2416H53158Then the LORD God planted a garden in Eden in the east, and there he placed the man he had made.H3068H430H5193H1588H6924H5731H8033H7760H120H834H33359The LORD God made all sorts of trees grow up from the ground—trees that were beautiful and that produced delicious fruit. In the middle of the garden he placed the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.H4480H127H6779H3068H430H6779H6086H2530H4758H2896H3978H6086H2416H8432H1588H6086H1847H2896H745110A river flowed from the land of Eden, watering the garden and then dividing into four branches.H5104H3318H5731H8248H1588H6504H702H721811The first branch, called the Pishon, flowed around the entire land of Havilah, where gold is found.H8034H259H6376H1931H5437H776H2341H834H209112The gold of that land is exceptionally pure; aromatic resin and onyx stone are also found there.H2091H1931H776H2896H916H7718H6813The second branch, called the Gihon, flowed around the entire land of Cush.H8034H8145H5104H1521H5437H776H356814The third branch, called the Tigris, flowed east of the land of Asshur. The fourth branch is called the Euphrates.H8034H7992H5104H2313H1980H6926H804H7243H5104H657815The LORD God placed the man in the Garden of Eden to tend and watch over it.H3068H430H3947H120H3240H1588H5731H5647H810416But the LORD God warned him, "You may freely eat the fruit of every tree in the gardenH3068H430H6680H120H559H6086H1588H398H39817—except the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. If you eat its fruit, you are sure to die."H6086H1847H2896H7451H398H3117H398H4191H419118Then the LORD God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper who is just right for him."H3068H430H559H2896H120H1961H6213H582819So the LORD God formed from the ground all the wild animals and all the birds of the sky. He brought them to the manc to see what he would call them, and the man chose a name for each one.H127H3068H430H3335H2416H7704H5775H8064H935H120H7200H7121H120H7121H2416H5315H1931H803420He gave names to all the livestock, all the birds of the sky, and all the wild animals. But still there was no helper just right for him.H120H7121H8034H929H5775H8064H2416H7704H120H4672H582821So the LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep. While the man slept, the LORD God took out one of the man's ribsc and closed up the opening.H3068H430H5307H8639H5307H121H3462H3947H259H6763H5462H132022Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib, and he brought her to the man.H6763H3068H430H3947H120H1129H802H935H12023"At last!" the man exclaimed. "This one is bone from my bone, and flesh from my flesh! She will be called 'woman,' because she was taken from 'man.'"H120H559H2063H6471H6106H6106H1320H1320H2063H7121H802H2063H3947H37624This explains why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.H3651H376H5800H1H517H1692H802H259H132025Now the man and his wife were both naked, but they felt no shame.H8147H6174H120H802H954
