Gen 2:2, 2:7, and 2:24 and their NT echoes: form only

Says Heb 4:4, Καὶ κατέπαυσεν ὁ θεὸς ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ἑβδόμῃ ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν ἔργων αὐτοῦ, agrees in form with Swete 2:2b, except that Hebrews adds ὁ θεὸς ἐν. It quotes the seventh-day clause, not the sixth-day finishing. The SBLGNT apparatus has no unit at Heb 4:4. That is form agreement, not a source claim.

Says 1 Cor 15:45, Ἐγένετο ὁ πρῶτος ἄνθρωπος Ἀδὰμ εἰς ψυχὴν ζῶσαν, takes up Swete 2:7 εἰς ψυχὴν ζῶσαν, with πρῶτος and Ἀδάμ added (no SBLGNT apparatus unit).

Says Matt 19:5 agrees in form with Swete 2:24 in καὶ ἔσονται οἱ δύο εἰς σάρκα μίαν. The SBLGNT apparatus records the Byzantine Textform’s Ἕνεκεν and προσκολληθήσεται, both of which match Swete, and, at Matt 19:4, ποιήσας against SBLGNT κτίσας. See xref.Gen.1.27.Matt.19.4.exeg. Matthew presents 2:24 as what the one who created them “said”. Mark 10:7–8 and 1 Cor 6:16 are named without separate records. Eph 5:31 shows the same “to/toward the wife” alternation as Swete 2:24; Westcott and Hort omit the Mark 10:7 clause.

Says 1 Tim 2:13, Ἀδὰμ γὰρ πρῶτος ἐπλάσθη, εἶτα Εὕα, and 1 Cor 11:8–9 state the order of forming as those texts argue it. The SBLGNT apparatus has no unit at those verses. No lean is taken on their application.

Uncertain How far 2:24 by itself governs later questions is not settled here. Divorce questions in Matthew 19 are out of scope. John 20:22 ἐνεφύσησεν may be a verbal echo of LXX 2:7; its intent is not settled.
