God Yahweh built the rib took from Adam into a woman and brought (her) to Adam.
===Translation of [[Tanakh:Genesis_2:23|Genesis 2:23]]===
Adam said: This is this time bone from my bone and flesh from my flesh. She will be named "woman" because from a man she is took.
"bone from my bone" = "substance from my substance".
==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.
"This time" in [[Tanakh:Genesis_2:23|Genesis 2:23]] is a contrast with the times Adam met animals.
