However how would Eve of known her identity had Adam not said it. If her identity was solely in God’s mind and was never declared by Adam, she would never have known would she? She would not have known how or why she was made.

He names her because he now realises what God has done, created a woman from the man-his bone and flesh literally. Put simply God has given Adam the role of naming the other animals, and has now given him the role of naming the woman aswell.

How would Eve of known her identity through Adam if she couldn’t understand what Adam was even saying? If she understood what Adam was saying then it’s because she was taught language first by God. How did she know what bone, flesh, man and woman were?

How would Adam of known his role to name the woman since God never said it? If Adam’s identity was solely in God’s mind never declared by God, then how did he know who he was? How did he know what a garden was when God gave him the task to work it?

Adam’s declaration, i agree is about the intimacy of the relationship and joy at seeing God’s new creation for him, yet her identity is portrayed from the will and mind of God, to them both through Adam’s words.

Through who’s words was the role to name the woman portrayed from?
