Who are the people created on the 6th day?

The Bible states that Adam was created on the 6th day. One may read about God creating Adam as, initially, the only human being. In mankind's earliest beginning, no Eve was to be found.

The book of Genesis didn't give any information about Eve's age. It just indicated that God created her after, and from, Adam the first man.

Describe an example in the Bible where the principles of operant conditioning are illustrated?

Operant coniditioning is shown throughout the entire Bible. Operant conditioning is where we learn to associate actions with consequences. I have an assignment this week in my class that asks this question and I have a few examples I am debating about using. Jonah is one character who received a punishments for his actions and because of his punishments he decided to change his behavior. Adam and Eve is another example of operant conditioning. If you just look in the Bible a little and understand operant conditioning, you will see a lot of examples.

Did Adam in the Bible know that the fruit he received from Eve was from the forbidden tree?

What type of fruit did eve eat off tree?

i really would say no one knows. some people belive it was an apple, but some think it was a grape.

Why was Adam created before Eve?

Scholars say the story of the creation of Adam and Eve should be thought of as mythical, rather than a historical account.

The ancient Hebrews were an essentially patriarchal society in which men were always more important than their women, so it was natural for Adam to be portrayed as created before Eve. In fact, Eve was an afterthought. In Genesis 2:18, God said that it was not good for Adam to be alone - he needed a helpmeet. God created all the beasts of the earth and Adam named each animal, but found none that met his needs (2:20). It was only then that God created Eve as a helpmeet or companion for Adam. A romantic touch was added to the story by having God create her out of Adam's rib, rather than out of dirt.

What temptation did Adam and Eve receive?

They were tempted by Satan/the serpent to eat of the fruit of knowledge of good and evil. It was the fruit God said not to eat.

Why do people still believe in the Adam and Eve fairy tale?

Because they're being brainwashed. People believe in a magical garden with two naked people with a magical snake, but they disregard evolution and actual evidence lol. Besides Adam and Eve didn't originate from Jesus, nor Christianity. It all came from Jewish Faiths which christians stoled. Read Darwin. The truth is far more complicated. Even the Vatican accepts evolution at this point. The old testament was written by MEN who were completely ignorant of science. They new nothing of atoms, or viruses, or stellar evolution. They didn't even know how many planets there were in the solar system.

Did God create more man after Adam and Eve?

someone once said to me that in the bible when it said that God created Adam an Eve that "Adam" represented all men and that "Eve" represented all women. But i dont know and i could care less.

How is Jesus Christ the new Adam the Savior?

THE SCRIPTURES SAY:that Jesus was the "Last Adam."-(1 Corinthians 15:45) Why is Jesus called that?

Because he paid the ransom for the condition of sin and death that Adam sold us into by his rebellion against God.-(Mark 10:45;Romans 5:12)

Why does the Bible use the word ransom when speaking about this? Because God has a law that most of us have heard before. 'Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth, and like for like.'-(Deuteronomy 19:21)

When Adam sinned, he lost his perfect human life. He had no children yet, so when he did have children, he could only pass on this condition of imperfection. An imperfect man cannot have an perfect child. Being imperfect, Adam's offspring now had no right to eternal life. What would be needed was an equal and offsetting sacrifice that would pay back to God what Adam lost in order to balance the scales of justice according to God's own perfect law of an equal for equal.

Jesus was the equal to Adam, he also being a perfect man as Adam was.-(1 Peter 2:22) But, unlike Adam, Jesus proved faithful to God, even under extreme test, even to death. He being perfect and sinless could have continued to live without ever dying, but he willingly suffered a sacrificial death, then eventually returned to his father in heaven, and presented the value of his life as a perpetual sacrifice.-(Hebrews 10:12)

Also, when Jesus died faithful, he proved that as a perfect man, Adam could have likewise been faithful as well.

Jesus thus fullfilled his role as the "last Adam, and redeemed mankind from the condition caused by Adam. The benefits of that sacrifice can now be applied to all obedient mankind.-(John 3:16)

1 Corinthians 15:22

Adam was the first man (Genesis chapter 2). Adam sinned (Genesis chapter 3). Sin is the cause of death. Romans 5:12-14 All who are born into this world, which began with Adam, are born into sin. Christ came into this earth to give us life...... Romans 5:12-20 Those who believe in Christ are born again; born of the spirit. 1 Corinthians 15:45-58 We say "born again" because we are now alive, just like when a child is born, they begin to their life (1 Peter 2:2). John 3:1-21 .We will not perish (1 Peter 1:23-25). Staying in hell is no life at all. A lifetime of suffering; how can one call that life? Romans 5:6-10 Christ is the Savior because He saved us from hell and gave us hope; not only for the life to come, but for peace, joy, and fulfillment for this life. John 14:16 The claims that Jesus made sounded bizarre, but no more bizarre than everything else about this world. Jesus proved that He was real and made life possible when He rose on the 3rd day, just as He said He would. 1 Corinthians 15:3-8

What kind of snake tricked Eve into eating the forbidden fruit?

The first storytellers knew they were not really telling a genuine account of the first man. And they knew there was not really a talking snake. This was a moral tale that was based on even earlier Near Eastern creation stories. Leon R. Kass (The Beginning of Wisdom: Reading Genesis) says we can learn most from the story by regarding it as mythical and looking for the moral truths it tells about humanity, rather than regarding it as some sort of historical account. We should not begin a search for the type of snake in this story, when there was none.
