“In almost every other usage, tsela refers to the side of a sacred piece of architecture like the tabernacle or the temple. And this meaning informs its usage here in Genesis 2. Adam and Eve's bodies are compared to sacred pieces of architecture, resonating with everything we've seen so far about the image of God. Temples embody God's presence, and so do bodies.”
