Genesis 2 opens with God resting on the seventh day and blessing it as holy. The chapter then describes God forming man from dust, placing him in the garden of Eden, and giving a command about the tree of knowledge. God creates animals for the man to name, but none is a suitable partner. So God makes a woman from the man's rib, and the man recognizes her. The chapter ends with the couple unashamed, showing God completing creation with a harmonious relationship.
