Then Yahweh God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.
In context
5No wild shrub had yet appeared on the earth, and no plant of the field had yet sprung up, for Yahweh God had not sent rain on the earth, and there was no one to work the ground; 6but a mist rose from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground. 7Then Yahweh God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being. 8Yahweh God planted a garden in Eden, in the east, and there he placed the man he had formed. 9Out of the ground Yahweh God made grow every tree pleasing to look at and good for food, with the tree of life in the middle of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
