I am in such a mess. I'm handling this mostly by myself. I just got the rugs down at the new place. Now I can think about unpacking the books.

Thanks for your research. I think it's a safe bet that Paul considered eve pretty much off to one side. Still the use of anthropos is at least interesting - perhaps suggesting Adam as representative of humankind rather than of guys.

Adam, of course, is used to represent the entire future human race, but it had to start somewhere with some one man and it WAS Adam.

I never bothered to get my concordance out of the attic when I found this website: http://www.tgm.org/bible.htm. It works GREAT! You can search for verses using a word or a phrase, you can see it in about 50 different English versions as well as other languages AND it has a built in concordance and lexicon. It makes it very easy to copy and paste Scriptures to comments. Hope you aren't wearing yourself out with the move. Some boxes I never did unpack and we've been here five years.
