Are you sure you got the scripture right

Edit:
the Bible does not blame Eve for all sin
Man does and still is blaming every woman on earth for their downfalls

Point of correction, Genesis 2: 20 - 25 (ends at verse 25 and not 30)

alot

Genesis 2:20 "And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him."

So though the races had their male and female counterparts, God has given only the domestic animals, and no wife to Adam.. Remember, God's order for His creation was "kind after kind". In the term; "..there was not found an help meet for him", indicates that God never intended for the mixing of the races. This is why "there was not found" a wife for Adam. There is no documentation which spells out the method of God's creation for the other races, and whatever is said is pure speculation; However, all the races are God's children, and God loves all his children.

Genesis 2:21 "And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;"

Adam was made in the image of God, and the angels, however, Adam is about to have surgery to change something."

What that surgery was, has as many answers as there is people guessing. However, we know that Eve was formed from Adam by the use of surgery.

Genesis 2:22 "And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made He a woman, and brought her unto the man."

We know the man in this verse is Adam, because verse twenty two is part of verse twenty one. God set this woman apart from all other women living then, that were formed through the sixth day creation. It will be through this woman that the Christ child would come [be born], and from her daughters.

The documentation connecting Eve [this woman] and the Christ child is given in Luke 3:23-38. The only way your soul will obtain eternal life is through that Christ child, and through His shed blood on the cross, and our repentance and acceptance of Him .

Genesis 2:23 "And Adam said, "This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man."

There were no women in the world that was [the first earth age], for all souls were the same in the first earth age. The same angelic body form that the angels have in this earth age, is the form that our souls had in the first earth age. There were no females, for all souls of that age are referred to as "sons", or in the masculine sense, by God.

My personal opinion is that God took the stronger souls and put them in the female bodies, because they can take a lot more pain than men, through childbirth.

Genesis 2:24 "Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh."

When a man and woman replenishes the earth, they both become one flesh through their offspring. Spiritually they are one flesh anyway, for "what God has brought together, let no man put asunder". The greatest gift that God gave to man, was a woman to be his helpmate.

Genesis 2:25 "And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed."

Why were they not ashamed? They had not met the snake yet. They had not partaken of the person known as "the tree of the knowledge of good and evil", and the world knows him as Satan.

Woman was formed from man. God had created the Heavens, the earth and man but yet man was alone. Man needed woman for companionship (among many other things). Adam and Eve were married and they became one. This was an illustration of how marriage today is intended by God to work that we will truly be one flesh and that we will think of our husbands as we think of ourselves.

As a wife you should know that the last thing physically your husband needs to feel complete is you. You shuold know that your husband will be with you and will be a part of you even before his own family. You are his family.

Lastly, they were naked together and unahsamed. This represents that there should be complete honesty. There should be no secrets or hideen agendas. You should feel safe in his presence and confident in your position with him.

The bible also says the God is Israel’s 'helper' but this word doesn't do the Hebrew word the real justice it deserves. 'Helper’ isn't being used in a submissive sense. In fact I would argue that being a 'helper' puts you into a dominant position. Women come in to 'help' men; they are compassionate, loving, kind and tolerant. They aren't so when men forget their positions and become abusive and lazy towards their 'helpers'. Women ease man's travels through life and as such are more deserving of our respect and admiration.

Without looking up the verses, I'm assumming that you are referring to Eve being Adam's "suitable helper"?

Women are people too........but they are the physically weaker vessel. This doesn't take away from them being just as saved in the eyes of Christ.
