God created Adam before day 7, not after. The detail of the creation of Adam is provided in chapter 2, which is after chapter 1, but there is no indication that it is a separate, subsequent event. Remember, the chapter divisions are not actually part of Scripture; they were added in about the 1400's.
Eve is the mother (female progenitor) of all humans. It's that simple.

I just looked quickly. The book of Enoch ch. 85 begins with Enoch relating a dream he had. Read through ch. 89 and it should become clear what the dream is about. I started with the R.H. Charles translation though there may be some newer ones. An updated one using the Dead Seas Scrolls may be good. I recall a few older translations that were suspect. 1 Enoch 1:9 (RHCharles) is very close to Jude 14, 15.

I'm pretty sure it says it somewhere. I got a brain injury 22 years ago so I don't think too clearly either. I've read a few...Enoch's the only one that I was really interested in. 33 years ago I had a wild vision, perhaps out of body experience is a more accurate description, of Jude 14, 15/ 1 Enoch 1:9. Jubilees is good. There's a lot of bad stuff too. I basically stick to the bible and Enoch. But that's just me.

Paul says in 1 Corinthians 15: 45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. 46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. 47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven. 48 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
If Adam was first, then Eve is second, according to the scriptures.

I never expected this to turn into this big uproar; I was just trying to point out that God made Adam and Eve for a very specific purpose. They were to be the “parents” of the Jewish race. Eve was to become the mother of all living. Not all people that are alive there is a difference when we are looking at the bible. The living are those that have excepted Jesus Christ as Lord and savior. The Jewish people had one main purpose; That was to have a pure line from Eve to Noah to Abraham to David to Mary the mother of Jesus. Yes there were other reasons but this was the main reason.

Really!!!!!
My bible says in Genesis 2 1Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. 2And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. 3And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.4These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens, 5And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground. 6But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground. 7And 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.

Let's ruffle some more feathers; even thou it is true it is not taught in most churches because it does not go along with main stream doctrine “The traditions of men that make void the word of God.”
Genesis 4:17 And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch. 18And unto Enoch was born Irad: and Irad begat Mehujael: and Mehujael begat Methusael: and Methusael begat Lamech. 19And Lamech took unto him two wives: the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah. 20And Adah bare Jabal: he was the father of such as dwell in tents, and of such as have cattle. 21And his brother's name was Jubal: he was the father of all such as handle the harp and organ. 22And Zillah, she also bare Tubalcain, an instructer of every artificer in brass and iron: and the sister of Tubalcain was Naamah.
23And Lamech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah, Hear my voice; ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech: for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt.
24If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy and sevenfold.

We have 2 genealogies here Cains and Adams. Why does Adam not appear as the father of Cain? I know why Able is not in Adams line; he was killed before he had children.
Here is the big question could the answer be that Cain was not Adams son?

Actually, it isn't taught because it isn't biblical truth. It's a misinterpretation of Scripture.
No; Cain is indeed Adam's son. Don't even bother with the heresy that the serpent was Cain's father. If your pastor is teaching you this c**p, you would do well to leave that church and shake the dust off on your way out.

Then why is he not in Adams line.
John 8:34-44
Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
35And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.
36If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
37I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.
38I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.
39They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
40But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.
41Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.
42Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.
43Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.
44Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
You beleave your traditions of men I will beleave what I have been tought from the Word of God.
