And Eve is ranked as far above Adam as Life is ranked above Earth. In his age, letters and names and their relationships were important symbols. God rested after creating woman because he could not imagine a superior being to her which it was possible for him to create. Woman was created in Paradise while man was created outside of Paradise and transported into Paradise for the creation of woman. Woman was made of a better raw material than man since woman was made from something purified and man was made from the vile clay.
Consequently woman is more able to receive the divine light than man.
Man, not woman, brought sin and death into the world by eating of the forbidden fruit. Original sin is transmitted to us from our father, not from our mother. Man sinned in knowledge, woman sinned in ignorance, so her error was much less than his. Because Adam was the worse sinner, Christ took the form of a man, not a woman. Here is Agrippa's commentary in his own words.
