Genesis 2:23 in Context — Genesis 2
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.
23 E disse Adão: Esta é agora osso de meus ossos, e carne de minha carne: esta será chamada Mulher, porque do homem foi tomada.
24 Portanto, deixará o homem a seu pai e a sua mãe, e se achegará à sua mulher, e serão uma só carne.
25 E estavam ambos nus, Adão e sua mulher, e não se envergonhavam.
