Adam (Heb. ‘í‚dâm, “man”, “human being” or “red” ; Fen. and Ugar. ‘dm, “man” ; Ac. Admu, “child”; Ebla cun., Ad~mu ; gr. Adam). First member of the human family, created by God from the dust of the earth (Gen 2:7). His wife, Eve, was formed from his rib (vs 21, 22). Adam was given authority over the earth and all living creatures (1:26), and the command to populate the world (v 28). He and his wife were placed in “a garden east of Eden,” and given the task of tilling and tending it (2:8, 15); the produce of the 20 plants and trees would be his food (1:29). 9. Course of the Jordan, near Adam, stopped by landslides that occurred during the earthquake of July 11, 1927. Adam and Eve were created perfect (1:31) -therefore, without sin-, but also with the power of choice , so they were free to disobey God. He tested them by means of the “tree of the knowledge of good and evil”: he forbade them to eat its fruit; even touching it (2:17; 3:3). Eve was seduced by the serpent and ate, and then persuaded Adam to eat as well (3:1-7). By this act of disobedience they brought upon themselves and their children the curse of sin, and were expelled from the garden (vs 8-24). After the expulsion from Eden, Adam and Eve had Cain, Abel, Seth, and “sons and daughters” (4:1, 2, 25; 5:4). Adam died at the age of 930 (5:5). It is not known how long he lived in Eden (although it would be a relatively short time), since he was 130 years old when Seth was born (v 3), which evidently occurred some time after his expulsion (4:1- 25). Because of Adam’s sin, death affected the entire human family (Rom 5:12-14; Eph 2:12). However, Christ, the 2nd Adam (1 Cor. 15:45-47), overcame where the 1st Adam failed (cf. Mat 4:1-10), and by his sacrifice made possible our redemption from the results of our sins. first parents (Heb 5:9; 9:28).

(Heb., †™adham, from the earth, or taken from the red earth). in heb. this is both a personal name (Gen 2:20; Gen 3:17, Gen 3:21; Gen 4:25; Gen 5:2-3; 1Ch 1:1) and a general noun (mankind, used over 500 times in the OT). As the first and representative man, Adam was made in the image of God; he was provided with a garden, a wife, and work to do (Genesis 1-2). His rejection of God’s authority resulted in his broken fellowship with God (see FALL, LA), his expulsion from Eden, and a life of toil (Genesis 3). From the physical descendants of Adam and Eve came the human race.
Adam is mentioned nine times in the NT (Luk 3:38; Rom 5:14; 1Co 15:22, 1Co 15:45; 1Ti 2:13-14; Jude 1:14). Truths worth noting are the one flesh union of Adam and Eve, the comparison of Adam’s identity and role with that of Christ, and the submission of woman to man.

(man, person). (Possible combination of the words ha adam -terrain- and ha adama -reddish). Name of the first man, because God “formed man of the dust of the ground” (Gen 2:7). The A. word is frequently used in the OT, almost always translated “man.” God created man on the sixth day, male and female, in his image (Gen 1:27). Immediately before his creation, God discusses or talks about what he is going to do, which he does not do with his other creations (Gen 1:26). He commanded him to rule over creation (Gen 1:28-30). He put it in the garden of †¢Eden (Gen 2:8). He gave her responsibilities related to cultivating and caring for the land (Gen 2:15), as well as commandments (Gen 2:16-17).
The animals did not provide him with †œhelp meet† (Gen 2:19-20) and God found one for him, putting him to sleep and forming †¢Eve from one of his ribs (Gen 2:18-23). A. He had perfect fellowship with God (Gen 3:8-9). A. disobeyed God by eating from the “tree of the knowledge of good and evil” (Gen 3:6), thus violating the covenant with God (Hos 6:7), after which he hid (Gen 3:8 ). Questioned by God, he blamed God himself, saying: † œThe woman whom you gave me as a companion gave me from the tree, and I ate † (Gen 3:12). He along with Eve he was kicked out of Eden (Gen 3:24). He had many sons and daughters, including †¢Cain, †¢Abel, and †¢Seth (Gen 4:1-2; Gen 5:3-4). He lived nine hundred and thirty years (Gen 5:5).
In the genealogy of the Lord Jesus at Luke 3:38, A. is said to have been “the son of God.” Although he had, well, the best father, A. failed. As a consequence of his fall, he lost his innocence (Gen 3: 7), the curse fell on the serpent (Gen 3: 14-15); the pain in the pregnancy of the woman was multiplied (Gen 3:16a); man’s abuse of woman began (Gen 3:16b); ecological imbalance begins (Gen 3:17); man’s work becomes uncomfortable and less productive (Gen 3:19a); and above all, death was introduced to mankind (Gen 3:19b).
í “death reigned” over the human beings who followed him (Rom 5:14). Despite their sin, God prepared for A. and Eve “coats of skins and clothed them” (Gen 3:21). Likewise, he made them a promise related to a future redemption (Gen 3:15). To compare the effects of his action with those of the work of Christ, the Scripture speaks of the “first A.† , who was made a “living soul”, while the Lord Jesus Christ is the “last A., life-giving spirit” (1 Cor. 15.45). And “just as in A. all die, so in Christ all will be made alive” (1 Col 15:22). The NT draws a parallel between A. and Christ, so that just as A. was responsible for introducing death into human history, Christ is the Author of Life, the head of a new creation. In addition, the damage introduced by the first A. is not comparable with the benefits brought by the second A. (Christ), because by this “the grace and gift of God abounded much more to many” (Rom 5:15) .

tip, BIOG TYPE MAN HOAT Name given to the first man created by God. The Hebrew word appears in the Old Testament more than 500 times and almost always means “man” or “human being” (Gen. 7:23; 9:5-6). Adam is the common name to indicate the first progenitor of the human lineage. Many see the origin of the etymology of this word in the Sumerian “Adan”, or “my Father”. Flavius Josephus says that in ancient times the opinion was common that the name of Adam was derived from the word “red”, alluding to the color of the skin and in accordance with the Egyptian custom of putting men colored red on their monuments. The first man created by God, Adam, was in intimate relationship with the earth, “Adamah” (Gen. 2:5; 3:19-23; 10:9; 34:15; Ps. 7:1). Adam was a man endowed with his own personality and characteristics (Gen. 4:1-25; 5:1-3 ss; 1 Chron. 1:1). Adam is the father of all men; God created him first and then his wife his Eve, and both were the parents of all Humanity: “He created them male and female” (Gen. 1: 26-28). The sons of Adam and Eve named in the Bible are Cain, Abel and Seth (Gen. 4: 1, 2, 25), although he later fathered other anonymous ones. At the birth of Seth, Adam was 130 years old, and he lived to be 930 years old (Gen. 5:3-5). Adam was the only one among the beings on earth created in the image and likeness of God, with reason, with creative imagination and with superior intelligence that enabled him to know, love and communicate, not only with other inferior beings, but also With God. He was the greatest and the last of the works of God’s Creation, and was given dominion over all that the earth contained. So that he would not be alone, God gave Eve as his companion and she became his wife. Adam was made a perfect man (complete in all physical, mental, and spiritual endowments) and placed in the Garden of Eden to be tested, innocent and happy, but exposed to temptation and sin. Adam fell by breaking the express commandment of God, by the temptation of Satan and the promptings of Eve, and thus incurred the curse himself and all his posterity. In the New Testament the name of Adam appears 9 times. Eight times in relation to the first man (Luke 3:38; Rom. 5:14; 1 Cor. 15:22, 45; 1 Tim. 2:13, 14; Jude 14). And one in relation to Christ (1 Cor. 15:45). On different occasions allusions are made to Adam, the first man, but as a proper name it does not appear (Mt. 19:2-8; Mr. 10:6-8; Rom. 5:8, 15-19). From these different quotes from the New Testament we can conclude that Adam is unique because he had no father or mother, he is the first among men, and was a son of God by creation (Lk. 3:38), not by descent from any race animal. This is why he has a very special relationship with the human race. The New Testament compares it to that of Christ, who is the last Adam, spiritual progenitor of all the redeemed. Between these two generations: that of Adam (the father of all men) and Jesus Christ (the new Adam) the entire history of the human race unfolds (1 Cor. 15:45-49; Ro. 5:13-19) . There is no one who lived before Adam, because he is the first man; and so, there is also no one who lived before Christ in grace, because Christ is the second Adam. All men live by and in Christ when they are born to Him by faith. Adam thus becomes a prototype of Jesus Christ, the one who would redeem all men. Through Adam entered death and sin. The Epistle to the Romans tells us explicitly that through Adam’s transgression sin entered the world (Rom. 5). In Adam all men sinned and died. Through the transgression of one man (Adam), all were made sinners (Rom. 5:18). Through his breaking of the law and his condemnation, all men became sinners and mortals; Through the work of Christ, all men who follow Christ are rescued and freed from sin and death. The New Testament thus confirms the historicity of the accounts in the first chapters of Genesis that relate to Adam. In 1 Cor. 15:45-47 we have a very clear allusion to Genesis, (Gen. 2:7), and in the first Epistle to Timothy, (1 Tim. 2:13), we have another reference to Genesis, (Gen. 2:20-23). There are many passages in the New Testament that present very clear allusions (sometimes implicit, but many times explicit) of the events that occurred before…
