All my life I have believed that Adam died spiritually when he sinned. I never questioned it until now. I don’t disagree with anything in your last post and I thank you for taking the time to offer your thoughts.
As I look to the scripture for support, I am finding some support for the opposite. You say, “these are types rather than chronology, ” I will look to see if I can support that. I am sure that you realize that God’s types are crafted with precision and words like first and second cannot be taken lightly.
I am aware how many passages of scripture are involved here; I do not change my opinion quickly. When Adam sinned, it does not say the he died spiritually, rather it says that God made for them “coats of skins.” A sacrifice was made instead.

God made skins to cover them as an atonement for their sin. We know they needed redemption because God said, "of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die." (Gen. 2:17) Adam and Eve died spiritually on that day. That is why they needed animal skins (requiring the shedding of blood) to cover their nakedness (sin).
Spiritual death preceeded physical death. Otherwise Adam would not have died physically.
