- Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.
- The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”
- Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. The man said, “This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called ‘woman,’ for she was taken out of man.” That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh.
Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’ For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.Next verse!With image
