Another, was at the transfiguration of Jesus. Moses and Elijah appeared an spoke with Jesus. the apostles with Jesus saw this, but did not talk with Moses and Elijah ( Matthew 17:1-8)
Luke 1:25, 1 Samuel 1:6, women have cruelly mocked other women many times over this issue & others.
Remember GOD justifies Romans 8:33, Psalms 22:24, be encouraged sis
Proverbs 16:9, Romans 5:1, James 2:22-25,
However the root argument sometimes stem from situational issues of choice which people may be referring to Genesis 38:6-10, then continued reading Tamar was considered "more righteous" Genesis 38:26, pursuing offspring of her dead husbands lineage, which was significant either in justification, reward or preplanned destiny. Matthew 1:3, Genesis 38:29, she is written in the documentation of Jesus lineage. Hebrews 11,
Additional scripture
Act 17:28-29, Malachi 2:15, Isaiah 65:21-24, on their perspective
I hope this was encouraging & helpful
Glad that you are beginning in the beginning! Genesis. I read this in my commentary in my Bible. Time and matter had no existence before the beginning in Genesis 1:1.
My thoughts:(No atoms, no molecules, no energy, no natural light, none of anything of the physical universe.)
In eternity past, before creation of the physical universe, God existed forever, alive in and of Himself, with no outer a cause to bring Him into existence (No Force). The Word does not say whether God created all of the heavenly spiritual beings (angels, seraphim, cherubim) prior to creating the material universe or after. But before He created these spiritual beings and the physical universe, He existed eternally as a Triune God in perfect communion within Himself, (Father, Son, & Holy Spirit) He was complete and in need of mothing. Nothing could be added to Him to make Him more perfect or taken from Him to reduce His perfection and this perfection is the same for all eternity.
When God chose to create, He spoke physical universe into existence, thus creating matter and time, since physical laws and processes began at this time. His speaking the universe into existence is creating something from nothing. (ex nihilo)
Whether He spoke the spiritual hosts of heaven into existence, or did something similar to making mankind, but not using physical matter is not known.
I hope this helps you. You could also google something like: creation of the universe ex nihilo and perhaps get a better explanation.
Thanks for asking. Such queries makes others of us have to consider how we would explain what we know. That is a good process for us to practice.
A sunday school teacher was teaching was sharing obeying God and lot his wife and daughters had to flee sodom and gomorrah with the angels and lots wife disobeying and turning into a pillar of salt, at the end a child ask what happened to the flea.
The word of God does speak to us and I believe He speaks to specific people for to do His will. When we study His word, the Holy Spirit teaches us if we open our ears. Preconceived ideas we have, plug our ears and we find scripture to confirm the answer we want. We cannot be taught if we know the answer before we study. The same is with a man, I never had children, we also can feel the eyes of whisper, the testimony is against them.
Interesting thought on the first Adam and the last Adam, may be that's one of the reasons Jesus is called the second man and the last Adam. Earthy first and spiritual second and at the resurrection we put off this corruption of the first Adam and put on incorruption because of what the last Adam did for us, then we will be in their likeness. 1John 3:2 Romans 6:5
My understanding of day six and Adam and Eve may be different, God bless you and your husband.

God bless.
I would like to add to what has been shared. I intended to respond earlier but got side tracked.
What drugs do other than being harmful for your health is influence the flesh as well as drunkenness from alcohol.
Ephesians 5:13-18. But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.
Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,
Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.
( AND BE NOT DRUNK WITH WINE, WHEREIN IS EXCESS; BUT BE FILLED WITH THE SPIRIT; ) I believe to be Awake, walk circumspectly, and to understand the will of God is when the Holyspirit is present in you. Alcohol and drugs voids us of the Spirit working in our lives.
Another verse that may go with that is Matthew 12:43-45.
Here the Lord is using the actions of an unclean spirit to draw a picture that parallels with Israel for the Pharisees.
When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none. ( The unclean Spirit. )
Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished. ( Void of the Holyspirit. )
Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation.
I believe this goes for any thing that may have us in bondage/Darkness. You turn from Darkness to Him who provides the light. "Christ in you"
I pray that helps, God bless.
