JabbaTheButt,
NO!
Adam and Eve were before all of that. Contrary to what someone else said, Abraham was not Jewish either. And neither was Isaac, or Jacob, or the sons of Jacob, or Moses. They were not Jews.
In one of the senses of the word, Jew as in those that practice Judaism, Moses began Judaism. But by birth, he was still not a Jew (another sense of the word.)
There is yet another meaning of the word Jew. Those that lived in the Southern Kingdom of Judah, after the split with the tribes of the Noirth, which became the House of Israel, who were also not Jews by more than one sense of the word.
So what was Adam and Eve? They were the first man and woman that God set aside for Himself.
Who was Abraham? He was the father of the Hebrews. Jews are a part of that. But not all Hebrews are Jews. The northern tribes forgot their inheritance and forgot God (read Hosea).

When God made Adam and Eve, there was no Jewish or African American or European or anythig like that, that started after the flood. The Bible doesn't say what they looked like, probably because God didn't feel it was important.

They were male and female and creatd by god. The jews were god's chosen people out of all the nations of the earth. the ones with whom he entered into a special covenant relationship.

Ha, wasn't that a little before any modern religion? Maybe pagan or even Neanderthal?

if you believe they were the first people on earth-they would have had no religion as such-they weren't even god fearing-otherwise why did they get thrown out of eden?so christianity is based on a non god fearing pair of people as role models-that's why things are like they are

Funny. They were supposed to be perfect. Jewish is said to be a religion. I doubt they were called anything more than'"Hey you guys?!"

The Bible doesn't say they were Jewish, but the Koran says they were Muslim. So, I guess they were Muslims.
