Adam in the Bible: Genesis 2:4-25
This is the account of the creation of humankind--Adam, the first man, and Eve, the first woman. This passage is light on details, but we can learn much about our relationship to God and to each other from the way that Adam and Eve are established in the Garden of Eden.

Creation in the Bible: Genesis 1:1-31
Where did we come from? What's the meaning of life? The answers to those questions aren't simple, but they have their roots in the much-debated opening verses of the Bible, which describe God's creation of the world and everything in it. From the very first verse of the Bible, God's role in creation is made clear.
