Jehovah the Creator knew that it was not good for the man to continue by himself. However, before proceeding to create the woman, God brought various beasts of the earth and flying creatures to the man. Adam named these but found no helper among them. It was then that Jehovah had a deep sleep fall upon Adam, removed a rib from his side, and after having closed up the flesh, built the rib that he had taken from the man into a woman. No doubt knowing by direct revelation from God his Creator and Father how the woman came into existence, Adam was pleased to accept her as his wife, saying: "This is at last bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh," even as was apparent to his very senses. As his complement Adam called his wife ʼish·shah′ (woman, or, literally, female man), "because from man this one was taken." (Ge 2:18-23) Thereupon God pronounced his fatherly blessing upon both of them: "Be fruitful and become many and fill the earth and subdue it." They were also to have the animal creation in subjection. (Ge 1:28) As a work of God's hands, the woman was perfectly suited for being a complement to her husband Adam and also being a mother.
