Adam & Eve; and Christ & the Church

I was reading Ephesians 1 and afterward wanted to see what the summarized bible said about it. When I read it, I was really surprised by what they said and thought that the way they compared Adam and Eve and Christ and the Church was really pretty neat, as I'd never thought of it that way. So I thought I'd share it with you guys.

Striking Facts: vv. 22–23. Jesus is Head of the Church which is His Body & His Bride. As Eve was of Adam’s body, yet was his bride, so the Church born out of His opened side, is both the Body & the Bride. This gives Him complete disposal of all the affairs of the true Church to the designs of His grace. Summarized Bible

Ephesians 1:22–23 —And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, *which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way. *
