What does Ellen White write about...
Adventistische Schriften über: "According to your writings, was Eve created from a rib from Adam’s side? Please provide exact quotations."
Answer
Yes, the other Christian writings of our faith also make it clear that the creatress was created from a rib of the created man Adam. She is suited to be his companion, one bound to him in covenant, neither as a ruler nor as a subordinate, but as an equal in love and compassion.
“Eve was created from a rib from Adam’s side”
»Eve was created from a rib taken from Adam’s side. She was not to control him as his head, nor to be trampled under his feet as a subordinate, but to stand by his side as an equal, loved and protected by him. She was his second soul, indicating the close fellowship in this relationship.«
»Eve was created from a rib from Adam’s side, meaning that she was not to control him as his head, nor to be trampled under his feet as a subordinate, but to stand by his side as an equal, loved and protected by him. She was a part of the man, bone of his bones and flesh of his flesh; she was his second soul, indicating the close fellowship and tender attachment in this relationship.«
»He took one of his ribs and closed up the place with flesh; and the rib which the Lord God had taken from the man, he made into a woman and brought her to the man. And Adam said: This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called "Woman," because she was taken out of man.«

Why I built EGW Vision
Hello, I am Stephan Krol. I started this Ellen White website to make the writings of Ellen G. White and the Adventist pioneers easier to access for everyone.
EGW Vision helps you find topics, statements, and quotes faster, especially when many original sources are not yet fully available in your language. The tool searches semantically, groups relevant content by topic, and presents matching results as clearly as possible in your language.
My hope is that this tool supports personal Bible study, strengthens trust in the original sources, and helps more people discover the message of these writings with clarity, depth, and joy.
