Who Were The Other People?

There were people here before Adam. God created them on the 6th day (Genesis 1: 26-31). He rested on the 7th day. (Genesis 2:2) There was not a man to till the ground (Genesis 2:5). These people were not farmers; they were not husbandmen; they ate what was there, already growing. So, on the 8th day, God created Adam (Genesis 2:7).

Plain and simple.

He didn't create the former people because they needed a Savior; but they did need Adam: a tiller of the ground.

Adam didn't need a Savior until he turned from God.

So, now he has to leave the garden of Eden; he goes out to the people and they learn from him.

The first Adam and the 'second Adam' were both teachers and saviors who came from paradise; both dealt with feeding the people; both dealt with thorns; showing again the story of Salvation in the first chapters of Genesis.

 Oh, you say, what happened to these other people? Anyone who didn't become part of Adam's family by the covenant of marriage, perished in the flood.

Again, the Jesus plot.

Always and for ever the Jesus plot.

All glory to our Risen Savior, King Jesus, and to God our Father, by the power of the Holy Spirit in Christ Jesus our Lord and Savior. Amen.
