1 Chronicles 1: Adam Is First

The two books of chronicles are a review and a supplement to everything in the Old Testament from Genesis through 2 Kings. The early chapters of 1 Chronicles are a genealogy that begins with the first man on earth—Adam. The Bible makes no apology for its presentation of the origin, progression, fall, and history of the human race. It also clearly teaches that our origin is based in the truth that God made us in His Own image, and He expects us to learn of Him. Then we are supposed to love Him enough to follow all of His ways. Adam did not, and look at what happened.
