LOs ANGELES (AP) — A biblical scholar says God made | Eve equal to Adam, and the traditional view of her as an. inferior. helpmate , arises. from . a: misinterpretation of Hebrew. R, David Freedman, a biblical scholar at the University _of California at Davis, writes in the current issue of Biblical Archeology Review that Eve was Adam’ 8 “‘power equal” ine the Garden of Eden. : The view is based on Freedman’ 8 ‘interpretation of Genesis 2:18. James Sanderg, an.Old Testament ‘specialist “onthe Revised Standard Version Bible Committee, said he . thinks Freedman makes “'a good case”, for his argument. ~ “Tes, worth, considering’. Sanders sald, __ Genesis 2:18 ipi the Revised Standard Version of the Bifle reads: “It is not goor’ that the man should be alone; I will | “make him a helper rit for him.” - . The two key Hebrew words “are “ever. kenegdo,” Freedman says. The words have been translated to mean “fitting helper” in the new. Bible of the Jewish Publication: - _ Soclety, a “helpmate” in the Jerusalem Bible and “an’ aide fit for him’? In the Anchor Bible.: But Freedman contends the customary wranalationa‘do not convey the whole rheaning. - “Woman was not intended ta be merely man 5 shelper, he said. “She was to be instead'his partner.” . © - |. Freedman’ said -his study: ‘of other uses of the words, “ezer” and “enegtio" conylnee him the former should be © " interpreted. ‘to mean “atrength” or, “anvlor,” while the’ latter means “equal.” Becatse “savior” makes.’ no-sense in the context, and : _ because “power” is Jess” awkward then “strength” ‘in, English, Freedman concluded ‘that Genesis 2:18 really ° desgribes Eve.as.Adam’s “power equal." . Freedman said that if Eve was thought of as équal in” power, ‘to, Adam: In Genesis 2; 18, that would ‘match the... Geneals 1:27 account of Adam and Eve’ s.creation.
