John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 2:24

Verse 24 24.Therefore shall a man leave It is doubted whether Moses here introduces God as speaking, or continues the discourse of Adam, or, indeed, has added this, in virtue of his office as teacher, in his own person. (151) The last of these is that which I most approve. Therefore, after he has related historically what God had done, he also demonstrates the end of the divine institution. The sum of the whole is, that among the offices pertaining to human society, this is the principal, and... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 2:25

Verse 25 25.They were both naked That the nakedness of men should be deemed indecorous and unsightly, while that of cattle has nothing disgraceful, seems little to agree with the dignity of human nature. We cannot behold a naked man without a sense of shame; yet at the sight of an ass, a dog, or an ox, no such feeling will be produced. Moreover, every one is ashamed of his own nakedness, even though other witnesses may not be present. Where then is that dignity in which we excel? The cause of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 2:18-25

The true life of man. The commencement of human society. First we see man surrounded by cattle, fowl, and beast of the field, which were brought to him by God as to their lord and ruler, that he might name them as from himself. "What he called every living creature was the name thereof." Nothing could better represent the organization of the earthly life upon the basis of man's supremacy. But there is no helpmeet for man ("as before him ," the reflection of himself) in all the lower... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 2:22

And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he (literally, builded into; aedificavit , Vulgate; ω ̓ κοδο ì μησεν , LXX .) a woman . The peculiar phraseology employed to describe the formation of Adam's partner has been understood as referring to the physical configuration of woman's body, which is broadest towards the middle (Lyra); to the incompleteness of Adam's being, which was like an unfinished building until Eve was formed (Calvin); to the part of the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 2:22

The first marriage . I. THE LONELY MAN . 1. Nobly born . Sprung from the soil, yet descended from above. Fashioned of the dust, yet inspired by a celestial breath. Allied to the beasts, yet the offspring of God. 2. Comfortably placed . His native country a sunny region of delights (Eden, Genesis 2:8 ); his home a beautiful and fertile garden ( Genesis 3:5 ); his supplies of the amplest possible description ( Genesis 1:30 ; Genesis 2:16 ); his occupation light... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 2:23

And Adam said. Either as being possessed, while in a sinless state, of a power of intuitive perception which has been lost through the fall, or as speaking under Divine inspiration ( vide Matthew 19:4-6 ). This now. Literally, this tread, step, or stroke, meaning either this time, looking back to the previous review of the animal creation, as if he wished to say, At last one has come who is suitable to be my partner (Calvin); or, less probably, looking forward to the ordinary mode of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 2:24

Therefore shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave unto his wife. There is nothing in the use of such terms as father and mother, or in the fact that the sentiment is prophetic, to prevent the words from being regarded as a continuation of Adam's speech, although, on the other hand, the statement of Christ ( Matthew 19:5 ) does not preclude the possibility of Moses being their author; but whether uttered by the first husband (Delitzsch, Macdonald) or by the historian... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 2:25

And they were both naked . Not partially (Pye Smith), but completely destitute of clothing. Diodorus Siculus and Plato both mention nakedness as a feature of the golden age and a characteristic of the first men ( vide Rosenmüller, Scholia in love ), The man and his wife . The first pair of human beings are henceforth recognized in their relationship to one another as husband and wife. And they were not ashamed . Not because they were wholly uncultivated and their moral insight... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Genesis 2:23

Whether the primeval man was conscious of the change in himself, and of the work of the Supreme Being while it was going on, or received supernatural information of the event when he awoke, does not appear. But he is perfectly aware of the nature of her who now for the first time appears before his eyes. This is evinced in his speech on beholding her: “This, now” - in contrast with the whole animal creation just before presented to his view, in which he had failed to find a helpmeet for him -... read more
