I strive to have a deep and meaningful understanding of the Bible. I read or listen to God’s word daily and I am searching for fun ways to learn more. I think an extensive character study would be an excellent way to gain a better understanding of His message. I hope my readers enjoy this new resource as we delve into the people of the Bible.
I was taught as a child that Adam and Eve were the beginning of mankind and all races and peoples originated from them. After I studied the Bible further as an adult I soon discovered it tells a different story entirely. In Genesis 1:27 it clearly explains that on day 6 God made man and woman in their image. That day would also be the day all races were created as well. The 7th day God rested. The 8th day he made Adam which in Hebrew “Adam” is written as ΧΧΧ (adam) and is pronounced ah-dom.
All races coming from one female and one male is not only impossible it is Biblically inaccurate. If Adam and Eve were capable of such a feat then explain how in Genesis 4:16, Cain went to the land of Nod and found a wife. Where did these other people come from? The Bible explains in detail that those people were of the 6th day creation. Lets not forget that one day with the Lord is 1000 years. 1000 years is one day, 2 Peter 3:8.
In Genesis 3:20, it declares Eve as the mother of all living things. That statement is true and accurate because from her, umbilical cord to umbilical cord, the Savior Jesus Christ would be born. Hence the mother of all the living, those living in Christ of course, not all living beings.
It is not written how He made the people of the 6th day creation, however as for Adam and Eve the Bible explains perfectly. On the 6th day God made Adam from the dust of the ground and breathed breath into his lungs, Genesis 2:7. His purpose was to tend to the Garden of Eden as God put him in that very spot, Genesis 2:8. God also allowed Adam to name every beast of the field and fowl of the air, Genesis 2:19 & 20. When no help mate could be found God caused Adam to fall into a deep sleep. Genesis 2:21. Most churches teach that Eve was made from Adam’s rib but no such word is in the Bible. The word use is curved which translates in Hebrew to Tsela (Χ¦Φ΅ΧΦΈΧ’),which more accurately means “side” or “curved part”. Thus, more accurately, Eve was made from the curve of Adamβs DNA. Not Adam’s rib like it is still taught to this day. Sadly most Christians will never study deep enough to see otherwise.
I have never claimed to be a preacher or a teacher. Shepherd’s Chapel gives this advice often so I will as well. Don’t listen to man, read Father’s word for yourself. But read it without the influence of man and interpret the word for yourself. Mark 7:13 warns us that the traditions of men will make void the word of God. Are you studying God’s word or listening to man preach?
To conclude, Adam and Eve were not the first humans on Earth and every race certainly did not come from Adam’s loins and Eve’s womb. Adam and Eve were created on the 8th day and from umbilical cord to umbilical cord, Christ would be born. The Bible follows and describes that lineage from Genesis to Revelation. My beloved reader, study to show thyselves approved.
Thank you for reading my character Bible study and I hope you enjoyed learning about Adam & Eve. Come back tomorrow as we study Cain & Able and the sin in the garden. Have a great day and God bless!

Thank you for sharing your insights, Heather. I really enjoyed the depth of your study and the thoughtful way you approach Scripture. Itβs refreshing to see someone digging into the original Hebrew and looking beyond surface-level interpretations. Your perspective on Adam and Eve, and the distinction between the 6th and 8th day, certainly gives readers a lot to think about.
I especially appreciated the encouragement to read Godβs word for ourselves, free from tradition or outside influence. Thatβs such an important reminder in todayβs world, where itβs easy to accept teachings without truly testing them against Scripture.
Looking forward to your next post on Cain and Abel β itβs always fascinating to see how different people in the Bible fit into the larger story. Thanks again for creating a space for deeper study and reflection.

Thank you so much for your encouraging comment. I am thrilled to know you have been enjoying my Bible study tools. It saddens me that most people do not take the time for God each day. Or they rely on word of mouth and never fact check something they hear setting in a pew. Too many people have used God’s name to create spectacles and wouldn’t recognize Jesus if they stood at their door. I don’t say so in a judgmental way, I say it because I fear what generation after generation is being taught. The lack of morals and God centered lives can be seen all around us. I pray these posts bring people out of confusion into the light. Out of traditions of me and into the word of God. I am no expert, I am simply a student of God’s word searching for the truth. I hope to have you along for many years as we both grow in God’s word. God bless you and thank you for being an active reader.

One commentator has an interesting idea about Adam & Eve – that they were clothed in light. Thus, when they sinned, the Scripture tells us that “they knew that they were naked” because the light went away.
