This biblical text from Genesis Chapter 2 details the completion of creation and God's rest on the seventh day, establishing the concept of a holy Sabbath. It then provides a more focused account of the creation of humanity, describing how God formed the first man, Adam, from dust and placed him in the Garden of Eden. The passage outlines the geography of Eden, the permission given to Adam to eat freely except from one specific tree, and the creation of the first woman, Eve, from Adam's rib to be his companion.
