Genesis 2:20 in Context — Genesis 2
18 E disse o SENHOR Deus: Não é bom que o homem esteja só; farei para ele ajuda idônea para ele.
19 Formou, pois, o SENHOR Deus da terra todo animal do campo, e toda ave dos céus, e trouxe-os a Adão, para que visse como lhes havia de chamar; e tudo o que Adão chamou aos animais viventes, esse é seu nome.
20 E pôs Adão nomes a todo animal e ave dos céus e a todo animal do campo: mas para Adão não achou ajuda que estivesse idônea para ele.
21 E o SENHOR Deus fez cair sonho sobre Adão, e ele adormeceu: então tomou uma de suas costelas, e fechou a carne em seu lugar;
22 E da costela que o SENHOR Deus tomou do homem, fez uma mulher, e trouxe-a ao homem.
