The Superscription can be put this way, "And the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself." Whose seed is in itself makes the tree of life and the trees of righteousness as of one kind. Whose seed is in itself refers to the word of God sown in our hearts about which we hold a spiritual space.
Thus Adam would not find an help meet. He was the double for his Son and his mate had to match bone for bone and flesh for flesh. This understanding is what being based on truth did. God breathed his spirit into his nostrils and his living soul established his world 'in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens,'. Now for the verse,
"But for Adam there was not found an help meet for him./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;"
What does sleep signify? For Jesus here was no doubt with regards to Jairus's daughter. Before he would go in he said, "For the maid is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn."(Matt.9:24; Luke 8:8:49-55) He was there as the Word become flesh but also was in the land of the living where his Father was the God of the living." The same two worlds we are discussing and it's frame of reference is not only the now but also the day decreed for the Son.
When Jesus transfigured before the three disciples he merely showed the two worlds he carried about and it was same for Adam. He carried the same glory so he was naked but felt no shame.(Ge.2:25)
In 2:21 the Spirit speaks of a deep sleep which is not merely his sleep but with reference to the Son for whom he was a stand in. It is for this reason Elisha asked a double portion of his spirit. "And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me."(2 Ki.2:9). This is in context of the two worlds. 'Deep' refers to the death of the Son which would occur according to the scriptures in the day decreed for him.
