If Adam and Eve were one man, one woman, then please explain to me where Adam's first offspring got his/her spouse. Did he/she marry a sibling?

That seems entirely plausible, doesn't it?

The bible does not say who the first offspring was or if that first offspring took a wife which obviously he/she couldn't. But it does say that Adam and Eve had many offstpring and obviously there was some inter-marriage among relatives. However, the gene pool was not nearly as diluted as it is now so there would be no harm in it at all.
