Phyllis Trible's argument that Adam was a sexually undifferentiated 'earth creature' before Eve's creation, not male -- from 'God and the Rhetoric of Sexuality' (1978).
Egalitarian counter-argument to creation order
Dr. Phyllis Trible, a pioneer of feminist interpretation, argues in her 1978 book 'God and the Rhetoric of Sexuality' (p. 80) that 'ha adam' before Eve's creation was a sexually undifferentiated 'earth creature,' not male. She claims Adam only becomes male when Eve is separated from him. She translates 'ha adam' as 'earth creature' based on etymology connecting 'adam' to 'adamah' (earth/ground).
