Hoorah! Eve has Abel!

American Standard Version Chapter 4

conceived

Genesis 4:1 ASV

And the man knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man with the help of Jehovah.

See the word picture: breath--a head--breath. Does this not give us the picture both of conception and a birth? Harrah! Hoorah! It’s a girl!
