About Eve
The first woman, who was called the “the mother of all living” (Genesis 3:20). The book of Genesis tells us that after God created Adam, he saw that Adam should not be alone. God decided to create “a suitable helper” for Adam (2:18). The Hebrew word for helper is ezer, which is also used in other parts of the Old Testament to describe how God helps Israel. God made Adam fall into a deep sleep. Then God took one of Adam's ribs and used it to create Eve (verses 21–25).
Adam gave his wife Eve two names. First, he called her “woman." This name showed her connection to man (Genesis 2:23). Later, after they disobeyed God, he named her Eve, which means "life." It refers to her role as the first mother of the human race (3:20).
