Day 6 - man
LORD God didn't plant a garden until AFTER he formed Adam. He hadn't made it rain because there wasn't a man to till the ground, but water came up from the earth. So, he formed Adam & planted a garden. God didn't wait until there was a man to till the ground, but that's exactly what LORD God had planned to do.
"And the evening and the morning were the [first] day." I highlight it yellow
It repeats after each day God created.
It's easier to keep the days separated.
When you get to chapter 3 or 5, more info of a certain day is added. So back up to the highlighted words.
Stop and read all the reference notes to other sections in the Bible.
Sometimes it helps to write it out on note paper. Just arrow in those references to other passages.
My Bible looks like the LA freeway with write ins and colors. (Laughing)
Without looking around to see what everyone else was doing (walking around, visiting friends and not working; eating breakfast on company time, etc)
I performed my duties AS UNTO THE LORD) always. I visited with friends on breaks and at lunch. I was at my desk on time. I joined the company choir at Christmas every year. I lasted 45 years plus 2 years volunteer work at my Church in benevolence. Street ministry 2-3 times a week for years.
I took care of my Dad with Alzheimer's; later my mother with Dementia.
When I retired, I didn't know what to do with myself, so I did street ministry in my neighborhood.
Life is lived less complicated when we help others. You don't have time to be depressed or soured on life watching stupid TV. :D
I feel my age, but ministering in this comment room keeps me nearer to my Lord. As long as I can sit in the closet and pray loud. My neighbor may think I'm nuts LOL.
Don't let the times we're living in, drag you down spiritually. Do good to others and be kinder to yourself. I love getting up before the birds do, and listen to them break out in song, to praise God. That's when I talk to Him. I worship Him. He is my best friend. I talk, He listens. He's closer than many of us think.
I think heaven is going to be loads of happiness. Our poor minds can't really latch on to joy. Our world is getting so dark. I pray we'll be the light of Christ as long as we're here.
To understand the Word of God, one needs to be in a personal relationship with God, through His beloved and UNIGNITO Son, Jesus! JESUS CHRIST IS THE ONLY BRIDGE AND WAY TO GOD ALLMIGHTY! It's writen that we can make peace with Jesus while we are with Him on the way, meaning while we are alive! On The parabola of the rich man and Lzarus, Jesus teaches that there is an abiss between the rich man and Lzarus! It's writen onthe bible, that God is God of the living ones, not God of the dead ones, because the dead will ressurect, and likewise it's as if they are already alive, but they are still sleeping until the morning of ressurection, when jesus comes as He came to ressurect the true Lzarus, brother of Mary.
The only one tht surpassed this abiss is the champion of man Jesus, the second Adam! He ressurected and says the one that sees the son and beleaves in Him, has eternal life and i wil ressurected him on the last day. Paulo the apostle says on the fiteenth chapter of I corinteans if tere is not ressurection is vain the faith in Jesus. But paulo says also tht god prepared the good works( of Jesus our example as sheperd aproved by God ), for us that we may walk on them.
So, in Ephesians chapter 6:5-9, Paul is speaking to those who were in servitude to their masters & also he spoke to those masters who were believers - how both should behave one toward the other. You can also look at 1 Peter 2:18-21, for the Apostle Peter's similar dealing with this matter. So, these passages cannot apply to a husband/wife relationship, where the bond together in marriage is of a deep shared love, commitment & sacrifice, rather than of an eight hour paid employment situation.
So Paul instructs such servants to be obedient to their masters, giving them due honour & respect with all seriousness (fear & trembling), & with singleness of heart (i.e. with a heart & mind to give the best service you can) - as one would strive to fully obey & in work, for the Lord. And Peter gives us another view of this relationship: if the servant/slave is wrongfully treated or falsely accused, he should take the wrong even if he is innocent in the matter. So, yes, you need to obey your boss, giving him due respect & doing your work as best you can for him & the company. If he is 'worth his salt', he will notice your exemplary behaviour & likewise treat you fairly & reward you. As well, your Christian witness by your work ethics will speak volumes to him & others in his employ.

The Search Engine will pull up all the verses in the whole Bible with CREATED in it. This includes Old and New Testament.
You will have a complete picture of Creation. Also, how it is explained in real time and future time; and everything in between.
In Genesis, Highlight all the places where it says What Day God blessed when He was Done. [ first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh. You will see the before, during, and after motions.
For some reason New Christians will start out in Book 1, chapter 1 and be disappointed by Day 7 of Creation.
All of us should start in the Gospels, then Acts, the writings of Paul and other Disciples of Jesus. For a blessing: the Book of Revelation.
Proverbs for Wisdom; Psalms for Comfort and Prayers of all kinds. The Prophets to understand past connected to future.
We're not trying to discourage you. We're trying to help you find what you are looking for.
John 3 Jesus shows Nicodemas that we all MUST BE BORN AGAIN, to see the Kingdom of Heaven. Jesus baptizes us with THE HOLY SPIRIT, who is our Teacher on this earth. He reveals Jesus do we can understand.
We can chit chat all day long, but it is the Holy Spirit that reveals Jesus, and our Father, God. All of John 3, reveals who Jesus is to us; believers.
We're just being helpful, trying to. :)

The order isn't contradictory. Is it possible you are intepreting it in a certain way where you perceive it to be contradictory? Because it's not contradictory when I read it, nor has it ever been.
You wrote: "it's not the validity of the Bible I dispute, but the interpretation of it."
I can only guess as to why would choose to interpret it a certain way that doesn't seem to line up. I know from past experience others made assumptions about how information is presented. For example, it's common in books to have a summary or thesis statement in the beginning then go into detail and explain it thereafter. Let's say you told me you were in a car wreck then said someone side swiped you. Then I respond by saying "What?! You were in 2 wrecks? You were in a car wreck THEN were side swiped, that's hard to believe. Be honest, were you in 1 or 2 wrecks?"
Is it possible that when you read in the begining God created the heavens and earth, etc that you didn't interpret that as a summary statement, but an event that happened and ended, then when it says God created Adam, that you assumed it was at a different time and not simply the same event explained in more detail?
God bless...
