The bible says "So God created humankind in his image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them..."
then on the seventh day the Bible says this: "then the Lord God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the man became a living being." So at what point did God create humankind

Ge 1:23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
Ge 1:24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.
Ge 1:25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
Ge 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
Ge 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
Ge 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
It is the belief of many, I am one, that GOD created mankind and woman kind. Adam is the name for mankind, Eve for womankind.
Then HE placed one man, Adam and one woman, EVE in the Garden of EDEN.

God rested on the Seventh day the Sabbath - Saturday as we know it. He made man on the six day. The last verse (31) in Genesis 1 reveals that he ended creating man and beast on the sixth day. If you read the whole chapter you will see that after he finished creating he said the evening and the morning were the 1st, 2nd, 6th day etc.
God is Creator of all things, and has revealed in Scripture the authentic account of His creative activity. In six days the Lord made "the heaven and the earth" and all living things upon the earth, and rested on the seventh day of that first week. Thus He established the Sabbath as a perpetual memorial of His completed creative work. The first man and woman were made in the image of God as the crowning work of Creation, given dominion over the world, and charged with responsibility to care for it. When the world was finished it was ``very good,'' declaring the glory of God. (Gen. 1; 2; Ex. 20:8-11; Ps. 19:1-6; 33:6, 9; 104; Heb. 11:3.)

Mosses wrote the first 5 books of the bible several thousand years later. From word of mouth these things were handed down. So he put it together, as best he could with the information given.
When he says man was in his image, he means he has a sense of justice, love, wisdom and a care taking attitude.
God is a spirit creature, invisible to us. So his body is definitely not like ours. So he gave man a physical body. Capable of reproducing. So humans had the ability to create. life.
It is not like this person would exist somewhere else.
You can choose to give life to another person by reproducing.
The angels and Jesus himself was a direct creation by God.
Colossions states: Jesus was the first of his creations, by means of him all other things were created. But he to has a spirit body.

God ordered the Israelites to kill all men, women and children of some tribes in that region, because they were from a seed that did not belong on this Earth. There were descendants of the Nephilim and other races that were not supposed to exist on this planet.
Genesis 6:4 it says "the Nephilim were on the earth in those days AND ALSO AFTERWARDS (meaning after the Flood) when the SONS OF GOD went to the daughters of men and had children by them, they were heroes of old, men of renown."
That is why God sent the Flood, to destroy the seed that did not belong on this Earth, and why He commanded the Israelites to kill all men women and children after the Flood, because they were from a seed of another galaxy that did not belong here.
Adam was not the first

Humankind was created on the sixth day. Nothing was created on the seventh day. We are still in the seventh day - a day of rest.

I don't think it matters. The point is that we were created!
