RE: The evolution of Adam - Was there death before Adam

in #religion7 years ago (edited)

Well, from the opinion of (Genesis 2:16–17), Death Is a Punishment introduced into the world by sin.

Looking at life in the garden of Eden before the introduction of sin, you will find out that all living things were vegetarians.. having to solely depend on plants for food (Genesis 1:29–30).

Now, we cannot consider plants being consumed as food as DEATH because in the biblical sense of nephesh chayyah, plants are not “alive” . Nephesh chayyah refers to the aspects of sentience, where human beings and other animals are both described as having nephesh. Plants, as an example of live organisms, are not referred in the Bible as having nephesh which literally means 'soul', although it is commonly rendered as "life" in English translations.)

So from my opinion, i think there was no death before Adam.
