Well I don't think that they were white.... Here's why. Everyone has something called mitochondrial DNA- it is DNA that is passed from the mother to the child and several years ago the best scientists in the field determined that there was a woman "mitochondrial Eve" who was the first- the beginning of mitochondrial DNA and they determined that she would have lived in central Africa. So, hater, black people are closer to what humanity began as than us white folk. We are the mutants. Sorry.

According to the Bible, all people today descended from the survivors of a great Flood - Noah's family, who in turn descentded from Adam and Eve (Gen 1:11). There are many stories, from many parts of the world, of a great Flood that only several people survived to repopulate the earth.
But today we have many different groups, often called "races" with what seem to be greatly differing features. The most obvious of these is skin color. Some see this as a reason to doubt the Bible's record of history. They believe that the various groups could have arisen only by evolving separately over tens of thousands of years. However, this does not follow from the evidence.
The Bible tells us how the population that descended from Noah's family had one language and were living together and disobeying God's command to "fill the earth" (Gen 9:1, 11:4). God confused their language, causing a break-up of the population into smaller groups, which scattered over the earth (Gen. 11:8-9). Modern genetics shows how, following such a break-up of a population, variations in skin color, for example, can develop in only a few generations. And there is good evidence to show that the various groups of people we have today have NOT been separated for huge periods of time.
One could say there is really only one race - the human race. The Bible teaches us that God has "made from one blood all nations of men" (Acts 17:26. Scripture distinguishes people by tribal or national groupings, not by skin color or physical features. Clearly, though, there are groups of people who have certain features (e.g.skin color) in common, which distinguish them from other groups. We prefer to call these "people groups" rather than "races," to avoid the evolutionary and racist connotations that have become associated with the word "race."
All peoples can intermarry and produce fertile offspring. This shows that the biological differences between the "races" are not great. In fact, the DNA differences are trivial. The DNA of any two people in the world would typically differ by just 0.2%. Of this, only 6% can be linked to racial categories; the rest is "withinrace" variation.
This genetic unity means, for instance, that white Americans, although ostensibly far removed from black Americans in phenotype, can sometimes be better tissue matches for them than other black Americans.

Here is the knowledge you seek,

(22. And among His signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the difference of your languages and colors. Verily, in that are indeed signs for men of sound knowledge.) (23. And among His signs is your sleep by night and by day, and your seeking His bounty. Verily, in that are indeed signs for a people who listen.) God said:

(And among His signs) indicating His magnificent power.

(is the creation of the heavens and the earth,) The heavens with their vast height and brightness and beauty of the stars and planets, and the earth with its density and its mountains, valleys, seas, plains, animals and trees.

(and the difference of your languages) So, we see that some speak Arabic, and the Tatars have their own language, as do the Georgians, Romans, Franks, Berbers, Tou Couleurs (of Sudan), Ethiopians, Indians, Persians, Slavs, Khazars, Armenians, Kurds and others. Only Allah knows the variety of languages spoken among the sons of Adam. And the difference of their colors mentioned here refers to their appearance, for all the people of this world, from the time that God created Adam, and until the Hour begins, each of them has two eyes, two eyebrows, a nose, a forehead, a mouth and two cheeks, but none of them looks like another; there is bound to be some difference in posture, appearance and speech, whether it is apparent or is hidden and can only be noticed with careful observation. Each face has its own characteristics and does not look like another; even if there was a group of people who looked alike, having a beautiful or ugly characteristic in common, there would still be a difference between one person and the next.

(Verily, in that are indeed signs for men of sound knowledge.)

Peace be with you

Read Gen 2.7 in the panel alongside...

God made man from the dust of the ground.
Notice that the Hebrew word for "man" is adam.
Notice that the Hebrew word for "ground" is adama.
Ergo, God named the human race adam, after the dirt (adama) from which He made us.
We are (tah-dah!!!) the ***Dirt People***
And the LORD God formed man (adam) of the dust of the ground (adama), and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being. Gen 2.7
In the verses alongside, notice that adam carries the additional meaning of "red."
This is probably because the adama (ground) that God used to make adam (man) was adam (red) in color.
In Bible Bell's OPINION, Adam and Eve were probably the color of reddish-brown dirt. Not white. Not black. Reddish brown!

The Bible never states Adam and Eve were black. I think to the best of my knowledge, the only time it mentions race is in Song of Solomon. We know Jesus was middle eastern as he was born in Isareal and his mom was Jewish.

How do you know Adam and Eve are White? Maybe Adam was black and Eve was white, Maybe they were both black. Maybe they were neither white or black, you don't know.

How can Adam and Eve be White? They were from the middle east. Middle Easterners aren't white NOW and they weren't white then.

Time for you to be realistic.
