Adam's Rib

God chose to form woman from Adam's rib.  He didn't form her from Adam's head, so Adam would worship her.  He didn't form her from Adam's feet, so Adam would stomp on her.  He formed her from Adam's side, so they could be companions side-by-side throughout life.

I was at a wedding yesterday and heard that perspective.

TV:  Ecclesiastes 4:9-12

⁹ Two are better than one,
    because they have a good return for their labor:
¹⁰ If either of them falls down,
    one can help the other up.
But pity anyone who falls
    and has no one to help them up.
¹¹ Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm.
    But how can one keep warm alone?
¹² Though one may be overpowered,
    two can defend themselves.
A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.
