The first command given to man by God appears at Genesis 1:28 - "Be fruitful and become many and fill the earth and subdue it, and have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and every living creature that is moving upon the earth." (New World Translation)
This command, as worded in this verse, was not given to Adam by name ("And God proceeded to create the man in his image, in God's image he created him; male and female he created them." - (Gen. 1:27)) However, this command was given before the end of His six creative "days", after which he declared that everything was good, so it is reasonable to infer that he had given this command to Adam and Eve before they sinned. They were the only humans living that that time.
However, there are two creation accounts in Genesis, merely told in a different narrative. Genesis chapter two does not repeat the command to "Be fruitful and become many and fill the earth". The first job God gave Adam in Genesis 2 was to name the animals. (Gen. 2:19)
Another perspective:Unless you see the command to "be fruitful" as a "job," Adam's first job was "Gardener of Eden."Genesis 2:15 - Then the Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it.[NKJV]

∙ 8y agoGod commanded both Adam and Eve to replenish the Earth.
1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 1:28And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
He also gave Adam this command:
Genesis 2:16-17 (King James Version)16And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:17But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
