living ,
the name given by Adam to his wife (
Gen .
3 :
20 ;

1 ).
The account of her creation is given in Gen .
2 :
21 ,
22 .
The Creator ,
by declaring that it was not good for man to be alone ,
and by creating for him a suitable companion ,
gave sanction to monogamy .
The commentator Matthew Henry says : "
This companion was taken from his side to signify that she was to be dear unto him as his own flesh .
Not from his head ,
lest she should rule over him ;
nor from his feet ,
lest he should tyrannize over her ;
but from his side ,
to denote that species of equality which is to subsist in the marriage state ."
And again , "
That wife that is of God '
s making by special grace ,
and of God '
s bringing by special providence ,
is likely to prove a helpmeet to her husband ."
Through the subtle temptation of the serpent she violated the commandment of God by taking of the forbidden fruit ,
which she gave also unto her husband (
1 Tim .
2 :
13 -
15 ;
2 Cor .
11 :
3 ).
When she gave birth to her first son ,
she said , "
I have gotten a man from the Lord " (
R .
V ., "
I have gotten a man with the help of the Lord ,"
Gen .
4 :
1 ).
Thus she welcomed Cain ,
as some think ,
as if he had been the Promised One the "
Seed of the woman ."
