Instead of turning away from the bar of God’s justice in bitterness and despair, Adam turns to his wife and says, “I believe God’s promise. He has not cast us adrift completely…I believe God, and I honor you. (pg 110 RBM&W)
Just as the biblical teaching on who’s to help who is reversed in comp thought – it’s the woman who needs Adam’s help (since he’s the leader and she the follower) rather than Adam who needed the woman’s help (made for him as a helper) it’s also reversed who turns to the other partner! It was Eve who turned to Adam as God said would happen and not Adam to Eve! What else has been reversed I wonder?
