Genesis 2:18-22

And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.

1 Timothy 2:13 ; Ephesians 5:31-32 . As the apostle speaks of this as a figure, and we know that Adam was a figure of Him that was to come; doth it not suggest to us, that as the woman was formed out of the side of the man, when fallen into a deep sleep; so the church of the Lord Jesus was redeemed and issued from his pierced side, when, in the debased state of the sleep of death; he, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, was taken, and by wicked hands, crucified and slain.
