correct Tallman and as we know on this subject we are forced to draw some conclusions but it seems to me the conclusions we draw must be based in the facts we do know and the understanding we have of Gods nature. Not in words of men my take on this is God used a Word here to give us the clue to the answer to your question one of the meanings of Adam is ruddy
Adam, the Hebrew word for man, like Adamah the hebrew word for ground (from which Adam was made) are both cognate to adom, meaning red, and dam meaning blood.Virgin earth is red because it is dead plant material that turns it brown.That's why Mars is the red planet, no life has died there.The original earth of this planet would also have been red.Red blood cells are coloured by haemoglobin which contain iron, like the iron oxide that colours earth.Lev. 17:11: "the life of the flesh is in the blood", regardless of the amount of melanin in the skin causing tan, blood is always red.God "hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth" (Acts 17:26).Eskimos and other peoples also have rosy skin.To insist that Adam was white is not proven by the name "Adam" as you suggest.(Christina;68678)
.. And he was also clear that kind after kind was the law ..
Do you believe that different races are different kinds?Kinds are unable to interbreed and produce living offspring, so by this criteria, humans of whatever skin colour are the same kind.(Christina;68678)
If we assume that Adam was the first of the Ruddy complected race then it would have been against the kind after kind law to mix him with another of the races so he would have had no mate of his own race... Thus Eve was necessary ... God is the same yesterday today and tomorrow .....
Yes, and Moses married an Ethiopian, Joseph married an Egyptian.Do you believe Adam was pure Adamic race?We know from Luke 3's genealogy that Jesus was descended from Adam through Seth and Enos:-Lu:3:38: Which was the son of Enos, which was the son of Seth, which was the son of Adam,Now look:-Ge:4:26: And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: You have laboured the point that there ios not a single word about Adam and Eve having daughters, so, where did Seth get his wife?Either Adam's line, in which case you accept that daughters were being born and not mentioned, in which case this is where Cain could have got his wife, or, you believe Jesus is mixed race.Which is it?
