Translation of Genesis 2:21

God Yahweh caused to fall deep sleep on Adam, and he slept and (God) took one of his ribs and closed with flesh its bottom.

Translation of Genesis 2:22

God Yahweh built the rib took from Adam into a woman and brought (her) to Adam.

Comments

Is this "rib" or "cell" (meaning a cell of the biological organism)? However, if "rib" is cell or just DNA it would probably not make sense to "close it with flesh". So it is likely it is indeed a rib.
