She was created by God, that’s for sure - but not even indirectly from nothing.

But she was sinless until “the fall”. Perfection, which is what sinless is, certainly is better than sinful. That’s why all mankind needs Jesus - He alone is without sin.

An interesting, not directly related point: I’ve been taught all my life that humans - every one - is created in God’s image. In a book (Classic Christianity) that I recently read, the author points out Gen 5:1, which shows that Adam and Eve were created in God’s image, but all descendants have been born in the image of their Earthly parents. Being bron again, as the new creation in Christ, is when we are re-created in His image.

Gen 5:5:1 This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him;
2 Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.
3 And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth:
4 And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters:
5 And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died.

Depends on how "indirect" you want to consider. ;-)
