Saint mary? ANSWER #2 The woman referred could be one of two women. In Greek mythology and possibly stemming from the Greek school of philosophy known as Sophism, the woman was thought to be Sophia, the goddess of Wisdom. This theory did encroach on the beginnings of Christianity. Later in the history of Christianity, this woman depicted under the protection of God's left arm was thought to be the yet uncreated Eve, who was destined to be Adam's partner in the Garden of Eden and the mother of all humanity.

Who was created first the man or the woman?

In the first creation story in Genesis (verses 1:1-2:4a), men and women were created together in the same final act of creation (Genesis 1:27). Note that the text does not tell us whether there was only one man and one woman, or a number of each.The second creation story in Genesis (verses 2:4b-25) differs in some important ways from the first story. Man (Adam) was created as the first act of creation, then the animals and finally the woman (Eve). In this case, the man was most definitely created before the woman.Leon R. Kass (The Beginning of Wisdom: Reading Genesis) says that pious readers, believing that the text cannot contain contradictions, ignore the major disjunctions between the two creation stories and tend to treat the second story as the fuller, more detailed account of the creation of man and woman) that the first story simply reported, and therefore ignore the sequence of creation found in the first story.For more information, please visit: http://christianity.answers.com/theology/the-story-of-creation
