There are two creation stories in the Book of Genesis, each with an explanation of how humans were created.
In the first creation story (Genesis 1:1-2:4a), humans, both male and female, were created when God simply spoke them into existence on the sixth day, after all other living creatures had been created.
In the second creation story (Genesis 2:4b-25), a male person, Adam, was the very first of creation. In this story, which is more ancient than the first creation story in Genesis, God's powers were more limited and he could not make living things out of nothing. God therefore modelled Adam out of the moist earth. After God had then similarly made all other living creatures out of the ground, he made Eve. Rather than make Eve out of the dirt, he took a rib from Adam and made her from this.

∙ 9y agoThe Creation-narrative in the Torah (Genesis ch.1-2) states that God formed the body of a man from soil, and imbued into him a soul, bringing him to life. Later on the same day, God formed the woman (Eve) out of a piece of the man's (Adam's) body. See also:
