Published in Religious Texts 1 min read

According to the provided reference, the Lord God took a rib from Adam.

Explanation

The reference describes the creation of woman (Eve) in the Book of Genesis. A key part of the narrative involves God taking a rib from Adam:

  • "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; And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man."

This passage makes it clear that God was the giver (or, more accurately, the taker) of the rib, and Adam was the receiver. The rib was then used to create woman.
