How long were Adam and Eve living in Eden ?

Question

How long was it between the time that Adam and Eve started living in Eden until they were kicked out?

On a similar note - how long was it after the world was created until The Flood ?

I should have started this out with "ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE -"

I'm not asking if the story is true or not.

Answer 1

It just a story to get people to do right!!!!!! never happened

Answer 2

It was approximately 1600 years from Creation to the Flood. According to the ages of the patriarchs in the Bible, the world is about 6,000 years old, give or take, and the Flood occurred about 4400 B.C.
Adam lived for 912 [sic] years, so there would have been another almost 700 years after him before the Flood came. It's hard to say exactly how long Adam and Eve were in the garden before they got kicked out, but they could have been there about 100 years. They didn't start having children until they got kicked out.

Answer 3

According to the Bible, it never mention how long, so it would be a total guess to speculate.
Since we do not know the time in Eden, we cannot speculate the time from creation to the flood.

Answer 4

Perhaps someone will quote something from the bible as an "answer." I don't believe in Eden. But on the premise, I'd only say--UNTIL they found out how evil sex & knowledge are.

Edit: Hello? The world is about 6,000 years old? Does this say anything about the validity of this book?

Answer 5

we cant say how long they were in the garden but in the bible it say that to God 1 day is like a thousand years and a thousand years like one day, in other words they could have been there many years, you should read in genesis the first 5 chapters because it states that when God punished the man and woman the womans punishment was that he delivery pains would be multiplied, and we all now you cant multiply something if there was nothing in the first place, also in later in Genesis it states how God was displease with his pure people marrying into the children born out of eden

Answer 6

that could under no circumstances be ordinary, however the bible time after Eden to end of devil's time is 6,one hundred thirty years. so as that they have been in day six one hundred thirty years and all replaced into applicable whilst they have been created. Now Jesus will could desire to have the final 1000 years to make all of it applicable lower back Rev.20:a million-6; 2Pet.3:thirteen;

Answer 7

The bible does not give a specific time frame, but it does note the fact that Adam, whom God made responsible for naming all the creatures (Gen. 2:19-21) was in the Garden some time before Eve was created. It wasn't until Gen. 3:20 that Adam named his wife "Eve"; this happened later, after they had sinned against God and he put them out of the garden. This would lead us to conclude that the pair was just in the garden a short time; a few years if that. Adam would have not waited to long after meeting his wife to give her a name .

As to the Flood, in Gen. 5:6–11:9 the genealogy through Seth (third son of Adam) is given. Outstanding among these descendants of Seth is Enoch,the next man of notable faith is Enoch’s great-grandson Noah, born 1,056 years after Adam’s creation. Then in the 600th year of Noah's life (2370 B.C.E.), the Flood begins.
This however, does not correspond to the time of Creation; it yields towards the time of Adam's creation. The Flood came 1656 years after Adam was created.

The Bible does not specify the length of each of the creative periods. Yet all six of them have ended, it being said with respect to the sixth day (as in the case of each of the preceding five days): “And there came to be evening and there came to be morning, a sixth day.” (Ge 1:31) However, this statement is not made regarding the seventh day, on which God proceeded to rest, indicating that it continued. (Ge 2:1-3) Also, more than 4,000 years after the seventh day, or God’s rest day, commenced, Paul indicated that it was still in progress. At Hebrews 4:1-11 he referred to the earlier words of David (Ps 95:7, 8, 11) and to Genesis 2:2 and urged: “Let us therefore do our utmost to enter into that rest.” By the apostle’s time, the seventh day had been continuing for thousands of years and had not yet ended. The Thousand Year Reign of Jesus Christ, who is Scripturally identified as “Lord of the sabbath” (Mt 12:8), is evidently part of the great sabbath, God’s rest day. (Re 20:1-6) This would indicate the passing of thousands of years from the commencement of God’s rest day to its end. The week of days set forth at Genesis 1:3 to 2:3, the last of which is a sabbath, seems to parallel the week into which the Israelites divided their time, observing a sabbath on the seventh day thereof, in keeping with the divine will. (Ex 20:8-11) And, since the seventh day has been continuing for thousands of years, it may reasonably be concluded that each of the six creative periods, or days, was at least thousands of years in length.

Also, that a day can be longer than 24 hours is indicated by Genesis 2:4, which speaks of all the creative periods as one “day.” Indicative of this is Peter’s inspired observation that “one day is with Jehovah as a thousand years and a thousand years as one day.” (2Pe 3:8) Ascribing not just 24 hours but a longer period of time, thousands of years, to each of the creative days better harmonizes with the evidence found in the earth itself.

I know this is a lot of informantion, but I hope it helps answer your question. As far as a specific date, we'll only learn that in the future during Christ's Thousand Year Reign.

Answer 8

No one knows for sure. It's probably a safe bet to say they were out while still young and virile. I don't think they could have survived in middle aged life.

Answer 9

Considering that Adam had each species (or kind, whatever that is) walk beofre him to be named, It must have been a few months at least (350,000 species of beetles alone)

PS His latin must have been pretty good
