If Jericho was inhabited 9000 years ago by people long before Adam Eve who were the first people?

Obviously, if you accept archaeological evidence that demonstrates that the human settlement on this planet is over 7,000 years, then Adam and Eve cannot be the progenitors of the world's population. Accepting current scientific consensus holds that the first modern humans came into existence between 100,000-250,000 years ago. This was long before writing, so we have no clue what these first humans were named.

Where did cavemen live?

Cavemen got that name because they often lived in natural caves rather than building homes. These early humans were found all around the world, including Asia, Europe, and in North and South America.

Where were the first people on earth?

about 6000 years ago... Adam and eve, genesis ch 1 & 2 - first people, but not the first born. God created Adam and Eve, so if you are looking for the first born, that would be their children. (i.e. Cain, abel, etc.)

gen 2:7 "and God formed man of the dust of the earth and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul"

Because God touched man and everything God touches is eternal, hence, "man became a living soul" not just a body... therefore, as Gods Word reveals all throughout scripture, mans soul will spend eternity in either Heaven with God (God's desire) or in Hell without God.

John 14:6 "Jesus sayeth unto them, I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life, no man cometh unto the Father but by me."

There is only one way to heaven, and that's by accepting Jesus Christ as your own personal savior. Accept the fact that you are a sinner, (Romans 3:23, "For all have sinned and come short of the Glory of God"; Rom 3:10, As it is written, there is none righteous, no not one"),

understand that there is a penalty for your sin, Romans 6:23, "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord",

realize that God paid it for you already, John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have eternal life. Romans 10:9-10, "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved, (10) for with the heart man believeth unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

Accept the gift for yourself - Romans 10:13, "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved"

Luke 13:3, Jesus said, I tell you nay, except ye repent ye shall all likewise perish

What is the first evidence that man existed on earth?

From the lay studies I have conducted (readings), the earliest sign of civilization were found in the excavating of the village at Konya in Turkey. With an estimated population of 5-8000, scientific dating points to 7500-9000 BC. Interesting also, is the discovery only 100 miles north of Konya (12 miles into the Black Sea) near Sinope (also in Turkey). An underwater small village was discovered in 1999. It is dated 7500-8500 BC (both of these before the great flood). I persoanlly have faith in extensive findings such as these that are literal establishings and reference points in history. When dealing with isolated "findings" such as "Lucy" bones, the argument gets weaker and weaker til disintigration. The missing link is the same as it always has been....a "tweener" that has never been discovered.

How did the human race begin?

Our species evolved over a period of millions of years from other primates. The earliest hominids are several million years old. The oldest members of Homo sapiens are about 200,000 years old. Agriculture and human civilization began in earnest during the neolithic, roughly 12,000 years ago.

Where do black people come from if Adam and Eve were white?

First of all, Adam and Eve came from the Bible. Before the Bible was written (which dates back to events of not much more than 2000 years ago) people were drawing pictures on caves of up to 30 000 years ago, creating stone tools, etc. The Homo genus evolved over 500 000 years ago, from a common ancestor to the ape and this was discovered because anthropologists dug up fossils that demonstrate this fact. This means that through verifyable dating analysis, this fossil was sitting there for 500 000 years. God did not put that fossil there. This is something that just happens, as all organic things must die.. By the way this happened in what is now called Africa. It was shortly after this that humans migrated, traveling up through europe and across ice bridges into North America. There were other hominid species like Homo neanderthalis, which coexisted with human for a while, but later became extinct. Whether there relationship was symbiotic or conflicting is another debate altogether.

AnswerGod formed Adam and Eve from the dust of the earth which is brown,if you research you will see that the garden of Eden is located in Africa. Adam and Eve were black. The different races came about after the flood when Noah's sons and their wives traveled and settled in different places with different climates. Over time people began adapting to their environments thus the change of skin color and face structure. Also, there are plenty other races in the world besides black and white. Because many whites felt superior, many artists would depict Jesus and Adam and Eve to look European. This is why many people believe they were white. Jesus was Jewish, the original Jews were olive skinned with dark curly hair, some straight. American Jews have been mixed with whites. Africans are original blacks, whereas African Americans have been mixed with other races, just like jews. Over time many races have blended together esspecially in America "the melting pot".

What is Alfred Bester's 'Adam And No Eve' about?

The destruction of all life except for one man is what 'Adam and No Eve' is about. The piece of fiction is a short story by Alfred Bester [December 18, 1913-September 30, 1987]. The story ends with its main character figuring out how to repopulate the earth. It's just a question of dying and letting bacteria inside of him grow. Ultimately, human life should appear after a very long process of evolution.

What was God 's covenant with Adam and Eve before they leave the Garden of Eden?

God's covenant with Adam and Eve before they left the Garden of Eden was that they would no longer be able to live in perfect bliss, as they would be subject to suffering and toil. They would also be subject to death, and would no longer be able to partake in the Tree of Life. Additionally, God cursed the serpent for deceiving them, and promised that there would be enmity between it and the woman, and that Eve's offspring would crush the serpent's head.

  • Adam and Eve would no longer be able to live in perfect bliss, as they would be subject to suffering and toil.
  • They would also be subject to death, and would no longer be able to partake in the Tree of Life.
  • God cursed the serpent for deceiving them.
  • God promised that there would be enmity between the woman and the serpent.
  • God promised that Eve's offspring would crush the serpent's head.

These were the terms of God's covenant with Adam and Eve before they left the Garden of Eden.

What does genesis 3 teach us about human nature?

Leon R. Kass (The Beginning of Wisdom) says that the Garden of Eden is a purely mythic place. Man was never put in the Garden of Eden, because the garden never really existed. Kass says we can learn most from the story by regarding it as a mythical yet realistic portrait of permanent truths about our humanity, rather than as a historical yet idealised portrait of a blissful paradise we once enjoyed but lost. Kass believes that the audience for whom the story was written knew that it was not literally true, but learnt these moral truths by listening to the story.

It especially shows ours longing to be like the gods and our longing for immortality. We see this in Genesis 3:22, after Adam ate the fruit of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil and God said, "now the man is become like one of us." Adam had become like the gods, except that he was still mortal. So that he would not now eat of the Tree of Life and thus become immortal, God sent Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden and placed cherubim and a flaming sword to keep (block) the path to the Tree of Life (3:24).

What did God say to the serpent after Adam and Eve sinned?

Adam and Eve sinned by disobeying God's direct command(Genesis 2:15-17), but Satan was the instigator of that rebellion, challenging God's truthfulness and right to rule(Genesis 3:1-7). At Genesis 3:14+15 we read God's judgement against Satan, in symbolic language: "Because you have done this, Cursed are you above all livestock and all wild animals! You will crawl on your belly and you will eat dust all the days of your life. And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel."

Who did Cain marry when he was banished from the garden and knew his wife?

According to the Bible, Cain married one of his sisters after being banished from the garden. It is commonly believed that Adam and Eve had other children besides Cain and Abel, so Cain would have married one of his sisters.

Was Cain the son of Adam or Satan?

Cain (Qabeel) was the son of Hazrat Adam (AS). He killed his brother Habeel. He was not the son of Satan. No one should attribute his sins to Satan. Satan just lures a person to commit sin, it is the person himself who commits sin. We are responsible for our sins.

What does the bible say about bandage?

The Bible does not specifically mention bandages as a medical treatment. However, it does refer to healing and caring for the sick. In James 5:14, believers are encouraged to call upon the elders of the church to anoint the sick with oil and pray for their healing. While bandages may be a practical means of providing care and promoting healing, their use is not directly discussed in scripture.

What does Islam say about Adam and Eve's children and how did third generation come into existence when Adam and Eve only had 2 sons?

Concept that Adam and Eve had only two children is wrong. They had two children and two daughters. One daughter and One Son being born at the same time as twins. So there were two pairs of twins. Members of one twin pair married the ones from the second twin pair and hence the generation continued. Quran clearly metions the birth of twins at many places. Although, coming together of siblings may seem like incest, it was allowed at that time and only later was it made a sin. The reason God later outlawed it was because the genetic degeneration of the human race (Adam had none originally - it began when Adam and Eve ate the fruit of the forbidden tree - tree of the knowledge of good and evil), had reached a point where there was the increased possibility of the children of such union having disastrous genetic problems (we know this to be true medically now, but when God forbid such union, He did not explain why, but simply forbid it - the reasons are obvious).

This is also verified by Old Testament that says in Genesis 5:4 that the children of Adam & Eve married their siblings, although it does not accept that the siblings were twins.

However, some people dispute this Quran and Testament backed theory and instead maintain that since incest is considered a grave sin in Islam, this is probably not true. They believe that celestial bodies descended upon Earth to be brides for the two brothers or that the female twins gave virgin births similar to that of Mary.

i dont understand this virgin births thing- within Christianity Mary is singled out for giving birth as a virgin

she was the only one in history to do so- by saying that the twins gave virgin births is contradicting that
