Leon R. Kass (The Beginning of Wisdom: Reading Genesis) says the second creation story and the story of the Garden of Eden should be regarded as a mythical yet realistic portrait of permanent truths about our humanity, rather than as a historical yet idealised portrait of a blissful existence we once enjoyed but lost.

the story of creation of luzon
A:It is hard to see any connection between the first biblical creation story in Genesis 1:!-2:4a, and the second one which follows. It is in the first creation story that God took six days for creation, but man (both male and female) was only created at the very end of the sixth day as the very last act of creation, after which God rested. In the context of this story, God could not have given Adam and Eve any message during these six days. True, God did create Adam as his very first act of creation in the second creation story, but here there is no mention of six days and Leon R. Kass (The Beginning of Wisdom: Reading Genesis) says that we must scrupulously avoid reading into the second story any facts or notions taken from the first.Another answerIn Genesis 1:28ff God blesses the man and woman and tells them:- be fruitful and multiply, replenish the earth.God gave man a mandate to subdue creation and have dominion over it-to use it but not abuse it.- He has given them every herb and fruit for food.This was not during the first six days man was created on the sixth day

Answer The Lutheran creation story is the Christian creation account found in the Bible primarily in Genesis.
The creation story is mentioned in various places in the Qur'an. Some say the Qur'an confirms the Big Bang theory of the Universe because it says: "Do they not see that the Universe was one piece of matter, and that God exploded it apart"? The Muslim creation story is based on the accounts in the Book of Genesis, the first book of the Hebrew and Christian Bibles. There are fragmentary references to this in the Quran but, since the Quran is not a simple narrative, a better overview can be obtained by reading Genesis 1:1-2:4a (the first cration story) and Genesis 2:4b-25 (the second creation story) and understanding that all three religions harmonise these as if they were a single account. Islam does have some different interpretations of these texts, particularly in the story about the forbidden fruit in Genesis chapter 3, so it will be necessary to return to Islamic sources for an understanding of these differences.
All religions have some form of a creation story. All patriarchal religions believe in the Adam and Eve story (- the story is common to the Jewish, Christian and Muslim faiths). However, please note that most Christians do not believe that the story of Genesis and Adam and Eve is a fact - it is just a story.
