AMPLIFIED 2015 | Genesis 1:27 So God created man in His own image, in the image and likeness of God He created him; male and female He created them. [Col 3:9, 10; James 3:8, 9] |
Bible Question (short): How do I reconcil Ch 1 and Ch 2 of Gen? |
Question (full): This verse says that God created them male and female. Later in the chapter it let's us know that this took place on the 6th day of creation. I have been taught that the days were 24 hour days in the creation. However, in the second chapter it sounds like there was some time between the making of Adam and the making of Eve. For example Adam named all the animals. This seems like it would take longer than a day. Can you help me with this? |
