Moses was the writer of Genesis. Moses believed in God, and what he wrote should strengthen our belief. Under inspiration of God, he edited the earliest human writings, compiling them into what is now known as the Bible book of Genesis. These included “a history of the heavens and the earth” and “the book of Adam’s history,” which had been written down by the original man on earth. (Gen. 2:4; 5:1) Being “by far the meekest of all the men who were upon the surface of the ground,” Moses implicitly obeyed the directions of God’s invisible, activating force in making the permanent, reliable record concerning God’s creations. He was one of those men of faith who “spoke from God as they were borne along by holy spirit.”—Num. 12:3; 2 Pet. 1:21
Regarding our first parents language---The ability to communicate by means of speech is a divine gift that sets humankind apart from all the animal creation. Adam, was created with a mind that was capable of intelligent thought. He was endowed with vocal cords, a tongue, and lips that could be used for speech, as well as a vocabulary and the ability to coin new words. Adam and his wife could understand when Jehovah spoke to them, and they, in turn, could put their thoughts into words. (Genesis 1:28-30; 2:16, 17, 19-23) The language given to Adam was evidently the one that later came to be known as Hebrew. For at least the first 1,757 years of human existence, all mankind evidently continued to speak that one language.—Genesis 11:1.

Yes, Adam & Eve were the first living beings fashioned in the image of the Creator.
Answering your first question, it was Moses who wrote their life. He did so by divine inspiration, as he was the greatest prophet of all times.
Related to your second question, they used a language that some linguists call "Edenic", which is a close relative of Biblical Hebrew.

According to Orthodox Judaism, Adam and Eve were supposed to eat from the Tree of Life BEFORE they ate from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. There is a lot in Jewish scripture that isn't in the Written Torah. The Written Torah is only an outline, the main body of the Torah is the explanations found in the Oral Torah, written down eventually in the Midrash, Talmud, etc. So, what actually happened, according to Orthodox Judaism, is that when Adam and Eve ate from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, it caused a split in the forces of energy in the Universe. Previous to this, the forces had been unified, in total harmony, balanced. When they ate from the Tree, it caused "evil" to separate out from "good", that is negative energy to separate out from positive, and become their own separate forces. Out of balance, non-unified any longer. Yes, Judaism has always had physics. Whereas if they had eaten from the Trees in the order they were supposed to have done, they would have eaten from the Tree of Life first, which would have given them the ability to see and understand the forces contained within the Tree of Knowledge without causing any disruption by doing so. There is much more to this, but it would take more space than is available here.

They bible is full of myths and there is proof of Adam and Eve! And Adam and Eve are genetically and scientifically impossible to be the first people to start man kind!
There obviously had to be way more people then just Adam and Eve, not only genetically, but also because of race too!(not trying to be racist)

Dear Friend
The Book of Genesis, the first book in the Bible is thought to have been written by Moses. And how did he know:
2 Timothy 3:16
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness,
2 Peter 1:21
For prophecy never had its origin in the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.
All scripture is God breathed, he gave the author the words and they wrote them down verbatum.
God Bless

For heaven sakes read the bible again. Gen. 1:2-7. Then go to Gen. 2:5-25. There you will see that God created man and woman, then in chp,2 God saw he did not have a man to till the soil,(a farmer), He made Adam, then he made Eve from Adams curve, which is the helix curve, DNA. You must make a deep study to find the truth. It is right there in front of our faces and most of us miss it.

Moses is the supposed author of the first five books of the Bible.
I have no problem believing he wrote about Adam and Eve, my problem is with the fact that the final verses of Deuteronomy (the last book attributed to Moses) take place after he dies. How can you write something after you are dead?

Adam and Eve never existed. The story is called a parable. It is a moral story. After all, if Eve was made literally from Adam's rib, then she would have been genetically identical to Adam. Thus she would more aply have been named Steve. Don't forget that the bible was written by man.
