Phyllis Trible

The creation of man and women, and the order in which they were created is still and issue among many women and religious groups. The creation of the women came last after the creation of the garden, the trees and the animals. By making the women second over the man has created a thought that the women are inferior to the man and a subordinate. But as said that the last may be the first, which means that hey are in parallel. Neither was created first or last, but they were created equal. Yet they also said that the man needs a helper fit for him. This designates that man was created first and in order to help him he needed someone inferior to him. But the word helper does not imply inferiority and does not specify a position. The word helper then means that the women are equal to man. God is the helper of superior to man, and the animals are helpers inferior to man. Man had no part in the making of the women. He has no control over the women at all. He did not create the women, God is the sole creator. The argument on this is that God took the rib from man and created women.
