He is

Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”

This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day when God created man, He made him in the likeness of God.

“Whoever sheds man’s blood,
By man his blood shall be shed,
For in the image of God
He made man.

You make him to rule over the works of Your hands;
You have put all things under his feet,

With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the likeness of God;

But

But I want you to understand that Christ is the head of every man, and the man is the head of a woman, and God is the head of Christ.

To the woman He said,
“I will greatly multiply
Your pain in childbirth,
In pain you will bring forth children;
Yet your desire will be for your husband,
And he will rule over you.”
