It seems the creation account is unclear as it doesn't say God created Adam and Eve only. But I would assume so.Charlie Brown wrote:My question is, Adam and Eve were the first two that God created, but were they the only two?
Charlie,Charlie Brown wrote:Thanks for the reply. The reason I think they might have been the first two, but not the only two is because when I "picture" the creation account I don't picture God only creating one of everything. For example, when He created the trees, I picture multiple trees being created. I was just curious if the creation of humans would have been the same.
That's where my confusion begins. I don't believe that Genesis 2 is a separate creation account, but a more in depth look at day six and the beginning of our relationship with God. Too confusing. lolGman wrote:Charlie,Charlie Brown wrote:Thanks for the reply.

I'll throw this out there... I don't necessarily agree with it but there are some who believe that there are two separate creation accounts when it comes to man. In Genesis 1:27 God creates male and female in one creation account and the other is in Genesis 2:7 (Adam) and 22 (Eve) in the Garden of Eden. Why a separate creation account in Genesis 2? Because God was creating a separate group of people (that is the Jewish race) for which the messiah would be born out of.
I guess that makes two of us then....Charlie Brown wrote: Too confusing. lol
