A Comparable Helper

And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man. And ADAM SAID: “This is now bone of my bones and flesh on my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man.” Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. (Gen 2:21-24)

“It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him; (Ge 2:18)This remarkable verse tells us that God has designed wives to be very much like their husbands comparable but also different in ways that complement or help their husbands become all that God intends them to be.
