19 Επλασε δε Κυριος ο Θεος εκ της γης παντα τα ζωα του αγρου και παντα τα πετεινα του ουρανου, και εφερεν αυτα προς τον Αδαμ, δια να ιδη πως να ονομαση αυτα· και ο, τι ονομα ηθελε δωσει ο Αδαμ εις παν εμψυχον, τουτο να ηναι το ονομα αυτου.

This wall-painting, in the Sucevita Monastery in Romania, shows God creating Adam and Adam being alone, which led to the naming of the animals.

The people of the Most Ancient Church had begun wanting to lead themselves and think from themselves instead of from the Lord. The Lord knew it would be their downfall, and sought to fulfill them through the spiritual gifts they already had in their celestial state.

Here we see the Lord showing them the presence in themselves (the ground) of all the beautiful things of their state: affections springing from love to the Lord (the beasts of the field), thoughts inspired by mutual love (fowl of the air) and all other spiritual activity filled with life from the Lord (living creatures). And theses things were gifts; the fact that the people were invited to name the animals means they were shown the nature of all those wonderful things.
