Was Eve Created Because Adam Was Lonely?


Quite often our summaries of the creation story make it sound as though Eve was created because Adam was lonely. The common telling is that Adam was naming all the animals and realized that all of them had companions (male and female) but none were suitable companions for him. This made Adam sad and lonely. Then God recognizing Adam’s loneliness put him to sleep, took his rib, and fashioned Eve.


The summary above sounds plausible because it contains a number of true elements but it is an oversimplification that unfortunately makes it seem as though the creation of Eve was merely a response to Adam’s needs. As we will see, this is an unhelpful summary of the events that misses some key points in the narrative.

There are certain truths that this kind of summary calls attention to. It is true that the Bible teaches that Eve was made for Adam (1 Cor. 11:8). She was to be a companion and helper to him (Gen. 2:18). None of the previously created animals would be suitable (Gen. 2:20). Adam was very happy to see her and his language “at last” indicates that he was, in fact, waiting for such a companion (Gen. 2:23).

None of this, however, demonstrates that Eve’s creation was primarily a response to Adam’s desire for a companion. I do not doubt that Adam came to desire such a companion but that God is responding to a desire that initiated within Adam is unlikely based upon what the Bible actually says.

In the first creation account in the first chapter of Genesis we see that on the sixth day God creates livestock, creeping things, and beasts of the earth.

Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. And God blessed them. And God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”        
(Genesis 1:26-28 ESV)

First, notice that both Adam and Eve were created on the same day. In his unfallen state it is doubtful that Adam could have experienced loneliness in the way we do. Even if he could Adam would only have been lonely for one day and it was not a day of sitting around reflecting upon his situation. God kept Adam busy on that day. The more detailed account of the creation in the second chapter of Genesis explains that

Now out of the ground the LORD God had formed every beast of the field and every bird of the heavens and brought them to the man to see what he would call them. And whatever the man called every living creature, that was its name. The man gave names to all livestock and to the birds of the heavens and to every beast of the field…
(Genesis 2:19-20 ESV)

Some have argued that this cannot be understood to be a literal day because there is no way that Adam could name all of the animals in one day. While the chronology of the early chapters of Genesis is hotly debated and can become somewhat complex I would like to just point out two things that may be relevant to this criticism. First, the text does not say that Adam named every single creature on the planet. He gave names to the livestock, the birds, and to the beasts of the field. The authority or “naming rights” are clearly his and are not limited to this one day where he apparently names the creatures that were in the garden. Second, we need to remember that Adam did not have a fallen mind and so we do not know what kind of capacity he had for such work.

If we pay close attention to the passage we will notice that Adam’s desires do not drive God’s activity in creating Eve. The passage above is enclosed in an envelope structure. Verse 18 says,

Then the LORD God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him.”

This is followed by the passage above where Adam names the animals and concludes in verse 20 with,

…But for Adam there was not found a helper fit for him.

The naming of the animals is framed within these “bookends” where God declares that it is not good for man to be alone and then the confirmation that he is indeed alone. There are a lot of things going on in this text but for our purposes we can see that Adam is unique among the creatures and he is given dominion (implied by the naming rights). Of course he does become aware of his lack of a companion through this process. Verse 18 is the first mention in the scripture that it is not good for man to be alone and it comes not from Adam but from the mouth of God. This is prior to any record of Adam looking at the animals and coming to any conclusions about his singular position.

Adam says nothing about loneliness to God. We do not know if he felt lonely prior to God organizing the parade of animals or not. It is clear that God intended to create Eve before the naming of the animals because He says back in verse 18 “I will make him a helper fit for him.” In displaying the animals God brings Adam to recognize there is none who are suitable to be his helper. The creation of woman was part of the original perfect plan of creation. Adam was to be fruitful and multiply as commanded by God and by marching the animals before Him God is showing Adam the reason for the upcoming (already planned) special act of creation and preparing him for the very intimate culmination of His creative activity. The flow of the narrative is not that Adam looked around, didn’t find anyone to keep him company, expressed his loneliness and then God intervened to correct the situation. Instead, we see God working through the process of granting dominion to Adam, bringing him to understand his uniqueness and thus the uniqueness and the significance of the wife that will be provided.

After Adam has reviewed the animals it seems that Adam has become aware of his uniqueness and that there was no other like him. All of this sets up the final and most intimate act of initial creation.

So the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and while he slept took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh. And the rib that the LORD God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man. (Genesis 2:21-22 ESV)

Unlike all of the other creatures who have been created from dirt the woman is taken from the side of the man. She does not come out of man in the sense of springing forth but is taken from a living and vital part of the man. No two of any other creatures shares this kind of intimate connection. God then brings the woman to man and he names her. Her name recognizes the profound connection between the two.

Then the man said, “This at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
(Genesis 2:23 ESV)

The phrase “This at last” does have the sense of “finally… what I have been waiting for” which may be the reason why so much emphasis seems to be put on Adam’s being lonely and desiring to have a companion. Certainly, we can imagine him wondering if a suitable companion was going to be found as he worked through the naming of the animals. Eve was not, however, the result of God reacting to a desire or request from Adam. Rather, God prepared the man and allowed him to participate in an intimate way in the final creative act that ultimately served as a blessing to him.

The scripture says that Christ is the lamb slain before the foundation of the world (Rev. 13:8). This means that even before Adam and Eve were created God was acting with sin and redemption in mind. Through Eve will come the savior (Gen. 3:15). The savior will save for Himself a people (1 Pet. 2:9). It then follows that the relationship of Christ to His church should be in view even as we read the early chapters of Genesis (Eph. 1:3-5). We therefore need to realize that even this first marriage between Adam and Eve is intended to represent the profound mystery of the union of Christ and His Church (Eph. 5:32).

Eve was not created just because Adam was lonely. She is an important part of God’s plan of creation as well as His plan of redemption. Adam certainly came to understand that there was no suitable companion for him among the animals but it was God who brings about the circumstances where he comes to see this. We should be careful not to minimize her importance by only thinking of her in terms of Adam’s loneliness.

    1. Thank you for your comment Priest15. The question I set out to answer was not if Adam was lonely, but if Eve was created in response to Adam being lonely. As I said in the last paragraph, "Eve was not created just because Adam was lonely".

      Regarding your question I mentioned in the article that we do not know if he was lonely or not. The text does not say either way. I also pointed out that we are not sure if Adam's unfallen emotional state would produce what we know as loneliness. He had a perfect relationship with God so it is possible that what he experienced may have been qualitatively different from what we do in similar situations.

  2. I think its too bad that God had to be condescending towards Adam and had the nerve to think he would need a woman in the first place if he was sinless,number one, and number two why would he tell him to eat if he had no reason to? That bible verse about saying, Adam your no good if you are alone I need to send you some trouble by giving you a woman you dont want that Lucifer can use to keep bombing millions of generations with the devils sin so they can self-destruct. Makes no sense that God did not just make us all angels instead of putting us in these earthly prisons of ours that our spirits are trapped in only to be sent to the fiery furnace later? Satan was hoping God would make a mental mistake and sure enough He did, maybe one of them was mistaking Adams aloneness for loneliness, which is from the Devil, If Adam did not know demons than how could he be lonely? He never asked for Eve. That bible verse about Adam supposedly not "good" for him to be by himself I find offensive.

    From your paragraph seven, I do understand that God did create man and woman on the same day but that does not mean that we were both seeing each other at that time.
    Reading the Chapter V.4 proves the fact that man in the time God said the Bible says God created us meant something different. This however, i will want to say that God created man, He formed man and then Man BECAME A LIVING SOUL. Att the time of Gen. 1:26-28, man was not in existence
    Also, from the V.4-23 of the same chapter 2 of Genesis, is a time interval which proves that Adam and Eve were created at different periods.

    1. Thank you for replying Christian,

      I think the grammar and structure of the early chapters of Genesis support the chronology I gave. I think that plain reading, recognizing the story is told twice, makes it difficult to argue for such intervals as you suggest. I think we would need to import other presuppositions to argue for the necessity of such intervals. God Bless

    2. Please, let us not claim to be God or know more than God. The true question is, Where did Adam ask God to provide a helper or a female helper for him?

      Delete
    3. Thank you Anonymous... I am certainly not claiming to know more than God or claim any divine knowledge!!!

      One of the observations I made is regarding the fact that God is not reacting to Adam. I appreciate your desire to reframe the question, but the article is responding to an actual question raised by a student.

  5. I don't believe that Adam was lonely. Adam was perfect. He didn't know to be lonely, which is an emotion of sin that shows that we are not satisfied in Christ alone. He talked and walked with God everyday. He didn't need anyone else to make his life complete. God is the One who said that it wasn't good that Adam be alone. He would make a helper for him. Adam didn't even know he had a need. He was a perfect man and fellowshiped with a perfect God. God is all we need...no human can give us complete satisfaction, but God can. I think it's horrible when in children's Bible story books the authors add 'Adam noticed that all the animals had male and female but he didn't have a mate and he felt lonely.' He had God and he had no other needs that he knew of. He is the all-sufficient God who has the all-sufficient supply for all of our needs. Adam wasn't aware of anything or anyone else,that was extra, since all his needs were taken care of by his creator, God.

    1. Dear anonymous, great response regarding Adam and his state in the garden. I was really ministered to by your response. I do agree that God truly is the only One who can satisfy our needs. We do not have to walk around feeling sad and lonely. We need to strengthen our relationship with Christ. As we look to Him and fellowship with Him all our loneliness has to flee.

  6. WHY DID GOD SAY " IT IS NOT GOOD FOR MAN TO BE ALONE " . WHO MADE MAN ? IT WAS GOD WHO MADE MAN. GOD DID NOT SEE THAT ADAM WILL BE LONELY SOMEDAY?

    1. Of course! The point is that God was acting graciously, knowing what Adam needed and what was best for him. He was not reacting.

  7. I do not think that God responded to a need that was foreseen in any reactionary sense. I do not think the text supports that. Clearly, however, companionship is part of the plan as God brings that to Adam's attention through the process of naming the creatures, etc.

  8. From genesis 2 God tells Adam not to eat of the fruit or you will die. He then tells Adam it is not good to be alone.
    It can be inferred that Adam didn't k ow what death was, but that God was showing him what death (separation from God) would be "like". It wouldnt be fair to give Adam a consequence witbout explaining what the consequence was.

    All other days God said "it is good." After creating man he said "it is not good..." he created a sour note on purpose to illustrate death on a way Adam could understand.adam could not understand being alone from God, but he could understand the discord from viewing all the animal pairs but not having his own pairing.

  11. Hhhhhh.....You are all Wrong here....
    Your question
    "Was Eve Created Because Adam Was Lonely?"
    Yes he did...
    Yes God Created Eve as a result of Adam's Loneless...

    2) The reason you are saying what you are saying its bcoz u r confusing the THREE SEPARATE CREATIONS....
    ----Genesis Chapter 1....God Created Humans...Males and Females....(Gentiles)...
    On the SAME DAY....ans sent them out to have Dominion over everything that had been created.
    This was the first Creation...
    On the 6th day.

    On the 7th Day...God rested....meaning he didnt create a thing....
    Day/days after the 7th day, comes the 2nd and 3rd creation of humans..this time adam followed by Eve

    2) Genesis chapter 2 talks about the second creation and the reason for it...
    Adam formation....
    God purposely formed adam from soil to take care of the garden he would plant for adam...
    So immediately God created adam, he planted the garden to the East...Eden...placed adam ther to TILL THE GROUND....TO CARE FOR THE FRUITS THAT WERE THERE....

    3)Days later, it turns out adam is lonely....
    So God says..Genesis 2 vs 18".
    its not good for the Man to be alone, i will make helper suitable for him"
    You see!....Adam's Loneless prompted God to create Eve for him....
    So yes...Eve was created as a result of adam's Loneless.
    Genesis even says after naming all the animals adam no suitable helper was found for adam..

    3) 3rd creation...
    This is where God puts Adam in deep sleep..remove one of his ribs...and forms Eve....
    3 separate creations....
    First People (male and female in Chapter 1)...followed by adam...then Eve....

    Meanwhile the people Jesus christ has created in Genes chapter 1 vs 26 were outside the garden...eating Fruits....

    All humans were represented by adam...Adam sins...we are all damned...adam doesnt sin...we are all fine...

    Those two trees (The Tree of Life and the Tree of knowledge of Good and Evil) were ONLY PLANTED IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN...wer adam was.....No whereelse....

    Later the devil through the snake deceives Eve..Eve eats the fruit....Eve gives the fruit to adam....he eats also...
    Then thy relaise thy r naked....Jesus christ (The Lord) comes...chases them out of the Garden....
    He places the Cherub with burning swords on the garden to prevent Adam and Eve from getting back to the garden to EAT THE FRUITS FROM ANOTHER FORBIDEN TREE....THE TREE OF LIFE....
    Why?
    Bcoz Eating the fruits from this meant Adam and Eve living forever and ever....

    So adam and eve are out of the garden...only to realise they wer already ppo outside ...The ppo God had created in Genesis chapter 1 vs 26....
    They had sinned along with him bcoz they were all represented by him in the GARDEN...

    Adam continues his life with Eve...they bore two sons.....Cain and Abel...
    Cain out of Jelousy (Abel's Sacrifice was well received...he took the best from what he had) Kills his brother Abel...
    And he z afraid that PEOPLE WOULD KILL HIM....what were those people?...His father and mother?..no....
    They were the People God had created in Genesis chapter 1...before Adam and eve....
    So God places a Mark on Cain...so that ppo dont kill him....
    Then he runs to a place called NOD..and builda a city there...(You don build a city for urself....They were many ppo ther)...

    Eve bore a 3rd child...Male again....
    Then the story continues with Adam having many sons and daughters after seth ....

    Then in Genesis Chapter 6....There is another Misinterpretation about who were the SONS OF GOD WHO WERE MARRYING THE DAUGHTERS OF MEN?....
    Many christians believe they were Angels.....hahahah...

    In Chapter 6...
    The sons of God that were marrying the daughters of Men were not Angels...
    They were the Sons and grandsons of adam...
    The daughters of men were the Gentiles...the people God had created in Genesis chapter 1...
    Whites...blacks.....Asians...etc..

    ReplyDelete
  12. CAIN DID IT FIRST.....when Cain run to Nod he married ther....a gentile....a daughter of Man...
    Others followed suit...in the footsteps of Cain...
    Marrying daughters of men for they found them attractive...
    But this brought Chaos....More sin in the world....
    For the gentiles had already started worshippin false gods...idols....
    And God hated this....
    And he still hates it up to now...
    Thats why he warns us up to now, not to be yoked with non believers in Marriage...
    King Solomon did the sem..and we all kno hw it ended....The foreign women with their foreign gods drew Solomon's heart away from the ONLY TRUE LIVING GOD...THE GOD OF ABRAHAM...ISAAC AND JACOB...
    Now some stubborn christians do it any way...marrying non believers with the hope that they will change them in marriage...forgetting that no Man or woman can change a man except the Holy Ghost....
    Some have broken homes....some divorced...The few lucky ones, the grace of God upon them and changed ther non-believer spouse....

    Oky...
    So..Yes...in Genesis Chapter 6 also....
    The sons of God were not angels...but the Sons and grand sons of adam.....
    The daughters of men..were the daughters of the Gentiles....

    I know i have said alot.....but this is all i wanted to say.....
    If u hv any questions u r free to ask.

  17. To PILILANI BLESSINGS MUGHOGHO

    Biblical hermeneutics is the study of the principles and methods of interpreting the text of the Bible. The most important law of biblical hermeneutics is that the Bible should be interpreted literally. A second crucial law of biblical hermeneutics is that passages must be interpreted historically, grammatically, and contextually. A third law of biblical hermeneutics is that Scripture is always the best interpreter of Scripture. For this reason, we always compare Scripture with Scripture when trying to determine the meaning of a passage. I gather you have read and studied the text literal but not literary and failed to apply all other hermeneutical skills. I suggest what you have researched until now, run all of this through the original biblical language, Hebrew and it's grammar and syntax and literary forms. Then, applying the rules of hermeneutics, I believe you will not think of a creative story longer than the 7 days your argument seems to suggest. You will see that you start of from a false premise from which you built your whole argument, that led to three creation accounts. You are reading into the creation narrative an idea that is unsupported by the fast majority of biblical scholars, which lead to many miss interpretation and false conclusions on many of the mentioned topics, I don't know where to begin it so layered. But that is ok, luckily, this idea doesn't touch any primary issues at first glance, but on the long run it does conflict primary biblical principles. But correct biblical hermeneutics is all about finding the correct interpretation of the inspired text. The purpose of biblical hermeneutics is to protect us from misapplying Scripture or allowing bias to color our understanding of truth. But most importantly, we can't understand anything from scripture if it wasn't for the Holy Spirit. So when you say "you have it all wrong," be humble because even though if what you suggest would be correct, you don't own this information and have not generated it by yourself, the Holy Spirit would have done that. He is in the end who reveals all truths and we stay humble that we are allowed to know the deep thoughts and mysteries of the one true God. Nothing we understand of Him is not first revealed to us by Himself, we are not capable to generate any thruth about God without the revelation of the Holy Spirit. One great theologian one said, if you are not truly reborn and don't have a regenerated mind and heart of flesh. You cannot do theology, stay away from it. So,we stay humble and come as a child and ask God to reveal open our mind to His thuth. God will honor that.

    1. Thanks for your reply Humble. I think perhaps you are reading into my article. I have done both historical-grammatical as well as literary analysis of the passage.

      I do not assume three creation accounts, but rather different descriptions of the same event. The length of the days is, as I assume you know, a long and complex question. I presented the text as I believe it reads most naturally from a literal and literary perspective as well as how it is utilized by the other biblical writers.

      Your writing runs together somewhat so it is not clear to me if you are suggested that I am unregenerate in your conclusion. In any case, I entrust that judgment to God and agree with you that a regenerate heart is essential to doing true theology. I pray God's blessing upon you.

  19. Sorry but this story proves that when God walked with man he was still lonely and needed more. Idk prove me wrong if you can but I have a decent relationship with God and I'm still very lonely. Just like Adam was till he found his soulmate.
