Genesis1:27

27. So God Created man in his own Image, in the Image of God Created he him. Male and Female Created he them .

Not both together, as some of the Jews have Fabled, but successively, the Woman after and out of the Man, as is more particularly related, Gen. 2. 21. &c. which is here mentioned by anticipation. Albeit the Woman also seems to have been made upon the sixth day, as is here related, and as the following blessings sheweth, which is common to both of them, though the particular History of it is brought in afterwards chap. 2. by way of recapitulation or repetition.

Marginal references: Mal▪ 2. 15. Matth. 19. 4. Mar. 10. 5.
