Genesis 2:15

וַ יִּקַּח יְהוָה אֶלֹהִים אֶת הָ אָדָם וַ יַּנִּחֵהוּ בְ גַן עֵדֶן לְ עָבְדָהּ וּ לְ שָׁמְרָהּ

And Yahweh elohim is taking84 אֶת-the Red-one and is causing him to rest in the enclosure of Eden, to serve her, and to guard her.85


84

elohim is taking Adam. See note on “taken” in Genesis 2:23. The headship of elohim, Christ, men, and the Woman/Church is perhaps seen in this engimatic verse,

But I want you to understand that of the whole man the head is the Christ, the head now of woman the man, the head now of the Christ the God.” 1 Corinthians 11:3 literal.
