Don said: “Mar 10:6 But from the beginning of creation, ‘God made them male and female.’
We know that this was not on day 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 in the creation account of Gen 1.”
Cheryl: “Could you please write this statement how God could have written it if the man and the woman were created as male and female? How could he have written it so that we understood that?”
Creation can take time and forming can take time. Moses could have written that Adam before the split was ish, but did not, Adam is simply human and both the man and the woman have that name after the split. The point is to not go beyond the text, going beyond the text in ANY way is speculation; and as long as it is called speculation, I do not see a problem. For our faith, it simply does not matter what type of human Adam was before the split, since it does not say. Since there was only one, it is not even clear what the meaning of type is, type only has a meaning when there are 2 types.
