Detailed explanation-1: -Adam and Eve, according to the creation myth of the Abrahamic religions, were the first man and woman. They are central to the belief that humanity is in essence a single family, with everyone descended from a single pair of original ancestors.
Detailed explanation-2: -The old wisdom that men and women are moulded from the same clay must have inspired the story about Adam’s first wife, created by God from the same dust as Adam. Her name was not Eve, but Lilith.
Detailed explanation-3: -Putting all this together, between 9, 800 and 9, 700 years ago is an accurate date of creation for Adam and Eve. During this time, the Upper Paleolithic/Lower Mesolithic, humans created before Adam and Eve were yet hunter-gatherers.
Detailed explanation-4: -Adam and Eve were told they could eat anything they wanted-except the fruit from that tree. If they did, God told them they would die. Death was God’s warning, before “the great fall, ‘’ and the loss of innocence for mankind. Eve had been created just for Adam, a helpmate suited for him.
