When Adam woke up from his deep sleep position, behold a woman standing before him, he immediately announced, this is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man, Genesis 2:23a. Adam identified her as his very essence. He did not search for her, but God brought her to him. He suddenly discovered that this is the right woman specially designed by God for him.
The word discovers from the Hebrew matsa means, to gain knowledge about something. In the middle voice, it means to acquire or obtain, to perceive distinctly, discern clearly, come in sight of, expose to view, have a sudden realization of. This described what happened to Adam in the garden.
In the same vein, the writer of Proverb used the word find which carry the same meaning with the word discover and different from the modern usage of the word Search. Prov. 18: 22.
NOTE: the use of this term by the youths of this generation Single and Still Searching (SSS) is offensive. She is not a Missing Rib, but a HIDDEN RIB. Luke 8: 17. Missing is a word referring to something that is lost and may be found only when labour is applied. While the word hidden means something kept out of sight or view, something concealed from, reserved for or kept secret from; to cause something to remain unknown, with the implication of concealment and inaccessibility.
It also means, to cover as with a veil. A woman is not a missing rib, but a hidden rib. She is a grace gift in the hands of Christ the master, in the place of formation and structuring. She is divinely concealed and reserved for the right man and for an appointed time. She is physically and temporarily concealed from the right mans intuitive recognition.
Example Gen. 24: 65, For she had said unto the servant, what man is this that walketh in the field to meet us? And the servant had said, It is my master: therefore she took a veil, and covered herself. This is Gods perfect design for the right man/right woman. But a loose woman can get out of this concealment and become an open target to marry the wrong man. Ladies, never get out of this place of covering.
