God will help man to find his spouse. Man just need to relax in God
Gen 2:7 God made the 1st human being
Then the Lord God formed the man from the dust of the ground. He breathed the breath of life into the man's nostrils, and the man became a living person.
Gen 2;18-20
18. Then the Lord God said,"It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper who is just right for him."
19. So the Lord God formed from the ground all the wild animals and all the birds of the sky. He brought them to the man to see what he would call them and the man chose a name for each one.
20. ----------- But still there was no helper just right for him.
God has a sense of humor
God created wild animals and birds of the sky to be the right helper (spouse) for Adam. Until experiment was enough, concluded there is no helper among the animals and birds just right for Adam, then God create woman, the right helper.
Here we see that God was trying to find Adam a helper (spouse). God created various kinds of animals and bird for Adam to choose one to be helper. Fortunately, Adam didn't satisfied with wild animals or birds of the air to be his helper (spouse). If not, it will be very funny now.
Here we saw that God created and brought them to Adam to allowed him to choose for himself a helper and named them at the same time. Happened that Adam was smart enough not to have chosen the animal or bird to be helper, hence, God finally cause the man to go into a deep sleep, from his rib, God created a suitable helper. When Adam worked up from the sleep, his respond was, "this is bone of my bone, fresh of my fresh," and Adam named her Woman.
If we learnt the important of 1st mention in the bible.
- Here we saw that Adam had a choice (not the general idea that Adam had no choice but to pick the woman as his spouse).
- Here we also saw that Adam didn't go out to seek for a spouse, it was God who brought her in front of Adam and asked Adam was she suitable to be his helper.
- Here we also saw that there is no effort from Adam, he rested. God caused him into a deep sleep, then it was God's effort and initiative to take from his body and form a woman and brought her before his eyes.
