God said he would make man in his "image and likeness". Then he made man in his image. Then he made male and female. This is not mere poetic repetition, but an indicator of a riddle. Christ was made in the image of God. His bride was made to be 'like' him. Together they are the "image and likeness". The narrative through Gen 5 tells how the bride is made to be like Christ through the cross. | God said he would make man in his "image and likeness". Then he made man in his image.
