Where Does the Bible First Mention Helper (Help Meet)?

The Bible first mentions helper (help meet) in Genesis 2:18, from the original word ezer (עזר). 'It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet'—the first 'helper' answers humanity's need for companionship and partnership.
