Catholic 1849 · Haydock’s Catholic Bible Commentary, Genesis 1:27

George Leo Haydock, on Gen 1:27

George Leo Haydock · 1774–1849
Gen 1:27 · Douay-Rheims
“And God created man to his own image: to the image of God he created him: male and female he created them.”
On this verse:
“Male and female. Eve was taken from Adam’s side on this same day, though it be related in the following chapter. Adam was not an hermaphrodite as some have foolishly asserted. (Calmet) — Adam means the likeness, or red earth, that in one word we may behold our nobility and meanness. (Haydock)”
