Are you sure it is clear that Adam did not say it and if so, how?

Yes. The closing of the quotation marks is a clue and the change in point of view makes it obvious. It goes from Adam expressing his appreciation of woman to God to the narrator continuing the story with his commentary.

Have you ever heard of relaying what you heard someone say but since you can repeat it word for word you won't say you are quoting but still denote that it's from what they said?

Yes, but that's not how you do it. You don't just close the quotation and keep talking in that character's voice.

Please no sarcastic exaggerations, this is just a friendly debate about scripture that I wanted to have and it seems you are going of the peaceful path.

I didn't mean to sound hostile. I am merely stating the fact that biblical scholars are clear on this issue as is evidenced by the fact that every translation of the bible agrees on where the quote ends and the point of view shifts back to that of the author, or do you know of some that do not?




PS. to make it more clear when you are quoting someone on this forum and when you are speaking yourself, you can use italics or bold to differentiate between your statements and those of the person you are quoting. I like bold because it is clearly distinguishable from normal text in every browser I've ever used whereas the same can't be said of italics. To do this, type < i > without that extra space after < and before > at the beginning of the quote and < / i > at the end for italics or < b > and < / b > for bold (all without those extra spaces, I put those in so I would be able to post it without your browser interpreting it as a change to bold or italics.
