THE BIBLE IN POP CULTURE

This shall be called woman, Genesis 2:23

 


 


2:23: And the man said, "This time it is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh. This shall be called Woman, for from man she was taken."




The Bible was the wellspring of inspiration for artists throughout history, including George Frederick Watts, whose interpretation of this biblical verse is at left, and William Blake, whose work is at right.
