Chapter 2
1
Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
2
And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and
he rested on the seventh day from all his work
  which he had made.
Heb 4:4
3
And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in 
it he had rested
from all his work which God created and made.
4
These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they 
were created,
in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens,
5
And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every 
herb of the field
before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the 
earth, and there
was not a man to till the ground.
6
But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face 
of the ground.
7
And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed 
into his nostrils
the breath of life;
and man became a living soul.
1 Cor 15:45
8
And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put 
the man whom
he had formed.
9
And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is 
pleasant to the
sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the 
garden, and the
tree of knowledge of good and evil.
10
And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it 
was parted,
and became into four heads.
11
The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole 
land of Havilah,
where there is gold;
12
And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone.
13
And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it that 
compasseth the whole
land of Ethiopia.
14
And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it which goeth 
toward the east
of Assyria. And the fourth river is Euphrates.
15
And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to 
dress it and
to keep it.
16
And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the 
garden thou mayest
freely eat:
17
But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat 
of it: for
in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
18
And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I 
will make him
an help meet for him.
19
And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, 
and every fowl
of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call 
them: and whatsoever
Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.
20
And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to 
every beast
of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.
21
And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: 
and he took
one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;
22
And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, 
and brought
her unto the man.
23
And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: 
she shall be
called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
24
Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall 
cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
Mt 19:5
Mark 10:7
1 Cor 6:16
Eph 5:31
25
And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
