Accepted answer
St. Augustine, Tractates on the Gospel of John, tractate 9.10 (John 2:1-2):
Adam sleeps, that Eve may be formed; Christ dies, that the Church may be formed. When Adam sleeps, Eve is formed from his side; when Christ is dead, the spear pierces His side, that the mysteries may flow forth whereby the Church is formed.
