This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
12. ἐκ τοῦ ἀνδρός, i.e. by creation and generation (Gen 2:22).
διὰ τῆς γυναικός. By birth.
ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ. We are not to dwell too much on the intermediate links in the chain of causation, but to remember that all human beings come from God and exist by His ordinance, and that therefore each has his own rights as well as duties, which cannot be neglected without injury to the Divine order of this world.
