Genesis
The name Rod appears in the Bible in the context of shepherd's staffs and is used as a symbol of authority and power. For example, in Genesis 2:23, God forms woman from man's rib and names her Eve, which means 'mother of all living'. Adam then names his wife Eve, and they become one flesh. In Exodus 4:2, God appears to Moses and gives him a staff to use as a sign of his authority as a prophet.
