Genesis 2: 20 Commentary

James R.That story is not according to the Bible but according to you…you are turned to fables

But refuse profane and old wives’ fables, and exercise yourself rather to godliness.1 Timothy 4:7;

1 Timothy 1:4 nor to devote themselves to myths and endless genealogies. These promote controversies rather than God’s work–which is by faith.

1 Timothy 6:3 If anyone teaches false doctrines and does not agree to the sound instruction of our Lord Jesus Christ and to godly teaching,

He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,

1 Timothy 6:5 and constant friction between men of corrupt mind, who have been robbed of the truth…

2 Timothy 3:5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them.

Hebrews 5:14 But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.

HOW THE WOMEN GOT BREASTS ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE

The Hermaphrodite (both male and female) Adam could not find a suitable mate amongst the beasts of the field. God tried and tried to be the perfect matchmaker.

Adam went on dates with several animals.

God said “here Adam, try this porcupine as a helper/mate.” Adam complained, “The quills God! the quills are burring into my loins.”

God said “here Adam, try this pig. This pig can be a suitable helper/mate.” Adam complained “That is nice God, but it squeals.”

Adam’s breasts (remember he was a hermaphrodite at this time) were made extra perky when he/she was taken to the “polar region” of “The Garden” to date a polar bear. Adam was still unaware that he/she was naked so he didn’t know why he was cold.

“Genesis 2:20: And the man gave names to all the cattle, and to the birds of the sky, and to every beast of the field, but for Adam there was not found a helper suitable for him.” ASV

As the passage suggests. Cows, birds and EVERY BEAST was tried out as a helper/mate for Adam.

Then God had and idea. “Hmmm, you know, maybe there should be a female version of Adam.” Adam was put into a deep sleep. God removed his rib and breasts and put them on the female. And that, according to the book of Genesis, is how women got their breasts.

New Zoo Revue:
Gen 2:18-20
Adam is alone which God knows is “not good”. Adam comes to realize his loneliness as he reviews the animals. All the animals are in pairs - each animal has a mate.
Keep in mind that the events of Gen 2:4-25 happen on the sixth day of creation. People believe this because of verses 1:27-28. On day 6, God created both male and female and gave them the command to multiply. Think of chapter 2 as a Dateline episode reporting the events of this day. Chapter 1 had the focus on God and His creative work, while chapter 2 is now a focus on Adam. Some people wonder how Adam managed to name all the animals in a single day. A likely explanation is he just had to name the kinds: Fish, birds, and cattle for examples.
