Bible and the Adam and Eve story...

For future debating reasons: could someone tell me what the bible says in the Adam and Eve part in a condensed version?
Like, When it was… Was there any life before that, was the earth even made before then.
thank you for your cooperation.

Huh?

Dude. If you want to debate the Bible, a good start is to read it. The book you’re looking for is called Genesis. A condensed version… well, I’m not going to burn my hands on that one. Perhaps Polycarp is in a good mood today. :slight_smile:

Hmm… yea… Thats what i was afraid of.
The bible is just too boring and difficult to read for me

It’s not all that difficult, to be honest. Even this agnostic read the Bible in its entirety (granted, it was a few years ago).

Boring? Well, depends on what you expect of it, I guess.

lol, alright, well thanks anyways. Later tonight i think i may have to try it out.

Don’t expect to finish it before bedtime, though. It’s quite a read. :slight_smile:

Hehe, even just the part that describes the creation of Adam and Eve? Must be very long:dubious:

gyt_fx, the part you’re interested in is the first 3 or so chapters – not much more than a couple of pages. If it’s “too difficult” for you to read, then you have no business attempting to debate it. :rolleyes:

lol… ok ok, its not too difficult, im just lazy, and the parts of hte bible which i have read is written in an odd manor that i dont completely enjoy to read.

Here it is online; the creation account continues into the next chapter or two (click the ‘next chapter’ link, if it isn’t too difficult).

Thanks man, exactly what i was lookin for

You can select other translations/versions too; this one is a paraphrase designed to be easy reading, but in doing so, loses some of the precision of translation.

Well, it’s hardly modern in its style, I’ll give you that. Probably because the original text is about 16 centuries old (or more, depening on whom you ask). :slight_smile:

yes
