Where does it say that Adam and Eve were married? And if they weren't, does that mean we're all bastards?

Answer 1

Honestly, I've asked myself that question before too, and here is what I found: "Adam named his wife Eve, because she would become the mother of all the living." ~Genesis 3:20

I suppose when you are the first people on earth, there is no relevant need for a wedding ceremony, as we have grown accustomed to it. That's just it - it is more of a social custom than something truly necessary (at least in God's eyes). Otherwise, you would probably be correct.

There are other references where it mentions Adam & Eve as husband and wife:
Gen. 3:17 ~ To Adam he (God) said, "Because you listened to your wife and ate from the tree..."
Gen. 3:21 ~ The LORD God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them.
Gen. 4:1 ~ Adam lay with his wife Eve, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Cain.
Gen. 4:25 ~ Adam lay with his wife again, and she gave birth to a son and named him Seth.

Answer 2

I dont think they ever had a ceremony to announce being married, but that when God gave Eve to Adam it signified he was giving him a wife (Genesis 2:20 - 25). And no we're not all bastards! We're all children of God, He would never say we're not his.

Answer 3

Genesis 3:20- And Adam called his wife's name Eve.

Answer 4

have been Adam and Eve legally married? of course no longer! there have been purely 2 human beings interior the initiating, so who else to legalise it? extremely God informed them to be fruitful and multiply. God grow to be their "Solemnizer", isn't that the optimum honor there is? So your question of besides the fact that if we are bastards or no longer is beside the point to the Adam and Eve subject. we ought to continuously be careful to no longer impose our modern way of legalising marriages onto the cultures of the previous. A bastard is defined as a toddler born out of wedlock. a marriage happens whilst a guy takes a woman entirely to be his spouse in an area that recognises this way of union. in case you stay in a distant tribe, you have got a marriage devoid of any modern courtroom of regulation legalising it, suitable? So legality isn't a known criterion for being married, or to be acknowledged as a married couple. So besides the fact that if there is not any modern courtroom to legalise their marriage, it would not advise there is not any marriage. Neither are their offspring to be seen bastards. you should decide the case in accordance to the familiar norms and cultures surrounding the case.

Answer 5

God created Eve from Adam's Rib and he declared them Husband in Wife.

The Bible even says Eve was Adam's Wife

Answer 6

Eve was made for Adam,God married them.

Answer 7

Genesis 2:24-25, specifiacally answers your question. Verse 24 is referring to consummation (sex/honeymoon) which is the physical act performed to finalize a marriage.

Genesis 2
22 Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man.
23 The man said, "This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called 'woman, ' for she was taken out of man." 24 For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh. 25 The man and his wife were both naked, and they felt no shame.

Answer 8

you are not amusing. I guess you could saythey were married, God gave her to Adam. Jesus said one husband, one wife is what God intended for them when He was debating the Sadducees. You may be a bastard, I'm not.

Answer 9

{Good Question}

We are all bastards and we are not all bastards- both.

Two as one but not alone- even as Adam was one and became two.

{Not}

Answer 10

Marriage is a social construction that did not evolve until their was society.

That, and this is just a story.
