Is it on 6th Days as in

Gen 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

Or


Adam and Eve whom were created on 7th Day as

Gen 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

So what is what now.

6th day or 7th day.

This is the first time I hear saying Genesis is not in the strict chronological order.

Thank for your answer

Gen 2:1 Stated that It's 7th day, otherwise , Adam and Eve story be should be placed at Gen 1 like other stories.

Before I asked this question I had asked another question

What is the meaning of a day in Genesis 1 ?

I read Genesis careful and found 2 creations in Gen 1 and Gen 2 it's the reason I asked this quesiotn.

Creation 1 created human after apperance of vegetation and animals.

Creation 2 created Adam then animals and Eve.

As first answer if we take Genesis as not strict chronological order then the problem solved. What do you think.

Since you post Bible passages and I am a Christian, I can tell you teh 6th day.

Gen 2:7 does not say at all man was created on day 7. V4-7 give the summary of the creation. V1 says the heavens and earth were created and 2 and 3 talk about resting on the 7th day. V4 says this is the history of the creation...V4-7 detail teh events, but don't tell the days as Gen 1 does.

Also, Gen 1 tells what happened on days 1-6 specifically. At the beginning of Chapter 2, it says the heavens and earth were created, then God rested. V4 starts the summary.

It never says man or anything was created on day 7.

Umm...I don't see a contradiction here. How do you get from Genesis 2:7 that Adam and Eve were created on the seventh day, since there's no reference to time?? Anyway, the answer is day 6.

God made mankind on the sixth "day" in the first chapter of Genesis. ( The hebrew word "yom" can also literally be understood to be a period or cycle of time and need not be understood as a 24 hr solar day. - Many Christians have this "old earth" view. ) The next thing to consider is that the chapter and verse references were added in the 13th century. The end of the narration that is chapter one actually ends with chapter 2, verse 4. Chapter 2 should arguably start with 2:5. Because of the unfortunate division there is some confusion. I think if you would read it again with this in mind the question of day seven is resolved. (try 2nd link below) Genesis chapter 2 is entirely about the events of the sixth day. It is not a separate "creation account."

Nobody really, can prove that man was created on either of the day,because they are just representation of events as it happened,those days mentioned were not really a one day period as in our present day, it may even be eons before the next creation occur & it will be very difficult to explain. It is only for convenience that it was simpified to a single day event so that we can easily grasp the message that we are created by God. The actual day of creation is insignificant, because the important part here is the fact that God is the creator & man the created one.

The world is an illusion. First human is an image of illusion. Humanity and concept of time are also illusion within illusion.

God is self illuminated in which all these illusions occurs.
