Adam and Eve are stand ins for early humans. This worked to fit a narrative God wanted to tell a primitive people. The literal truth would have been too confusing and probably beyond their comprehension.
If we advance to the story of Cain and Abel, Cain kills Abel. Cain then tells God that whoever finds Cain will kill Cain. But according to the Bible, we only have 3 humans alive at that moment. Adam, Eve, and Cain. Then immediately, Cain gets married to a woman not previously married. Where did she come from?
Another creation by god or an earlier virgin birth without any incest? You tell me.
Shhh, you're only confusing the literalists who insist on telling us that God hisself wrote the Bible (presumably in English!), printed it and distributed copies to the rooms of the chain of Hideaway Motels, which rent rooms by the hour, primarily to couples, where the woman came only the motel clerk knows where from, and in which the word 'Jesus' is strangely spelled without an asterisk in the middle.
Wait a minute . . . what was that you said earlier about G-d having "absolute power?" Where did it go?

You're really a piece of work, aren't you?
I guess the "virgin birth" was just a "stand in" to fit a narrative for "primitive humans."
Yet Paul says that from ONE man; sin entered the world.
No; the bible does NOT 'say' that.
It only mentions those.
Absence of evidence is NOT evidence of absence.
Jesus specifically mentioned Adam. So did Paul. He made it clear as with one man sin entered the world and death-Adam. And by one act of righteousness by Jesus we are justified.
