Creation narratives

The two creation myths in Genesis provide different perspectives on the relationship between men and women; in Genesis 1:26–27 male and female are created together, in the image of God, while in Genesis 2:24, Adam is created first, and Eve is created out of him.

Double standard and male priority

In the Ten Commandments, the tenth commandment, a wife is depicted in the examples of a neighbor's property while the fourth commandment does not make any distinction based on gender; both parents must be honored.
