Genesis 2:19
Compare all
17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil ayou shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it byou shall surely cdie.”  
18 And the Lord God said, “It is not good that man should be alone; aI will make him a helper comparable to him.”  
19 aOut of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and bbrought them to Adam to see what he would call them. And whatever Adam called each living creature, that was its name.  
20 So Adam gave names to all cattle, to the birds of the air, and to every beast of the field. But for Adam there was not found a helper comparable to him.
21 And the Lord God caused a adeep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place.

Genesis 2:18-20

It is not good that man - This man, should be alone - Though there was an upper world of angels, and a lower world of brutes, yet there being none of the same rank of beings with himself, he might be truly said to be alone. And every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air God brought to Adam - Either by the ministry of angels, or by a special instinct that he might name them, and so might give a proof of his knowledge, the names he gave them being expressive of their inmost natures.
