The Torah has one creation-narrative, which takes the form of a summary (Genesis ch.1) followed by an in-depth recap (Rashi commentary, Genesis 2:8). In accordance with that system, Genesis ch.1 is stating that God created humans in general, while the following chapter delves into some detail, including the name of the first man and how he got that name.

Well Adam was the 1st male and Eve was the 1st female. So all you have to do is insert Adam when he says male and Eve when he says female.

Who was created first in the book of Genesis male or female?

How did people know about the first people in the world in genesis?

There is proof that there was the first people on Earth in Genesis. Adam and Eve was created when God spoke life into the humans and became flesh out of the dust of the earth to be in his own image, so does it says in the bible:"So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him, male and female he created them."

Who were the male and female persons God created before Adam and Eve?

Genesis 1:27: "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them."The passage in Genesis chapter 1 should not be thought of as other people created by God before he created Adam in Genesis 2: and Eve much later in Genesis 2:22. They are simply two completely different stories from two different sources and written by two different authors.The first creation account, in Genesis 1:1-2:4a (the first sentence in verse 2:4) is attributed to the Priestly source. The second creation account, in Genesis 2:4b-2:20 is attributed to the Yahwist source. This is why the first account has God creating people, both male and female after he had created everything else, while the second account has God creating Adam before any other creation and Eve last of all.


Why was the first woman named eve?

The first woman (identified as Lilith in the Jewish tradition) was created earlier in Genesis from the dust of the Earth like Adam (Genesis 1: 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.) Eve was the woman created from Adams rib. (Genesis 2: 22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.)
