It depends on how you read the bible. Before they make Adam and Eve (depending on how you read it) the made people before Adam and Eve ❤️

There are a couple of problems with this, but I think most of them come from the interpretation of the text rather than from the text itself. Firstly, Genesis does not fully explain the population situation at that point in the narrative. The story is mainly focused on the family line of Adam and Eve, not on giving a complete census of the world. Because of that, the argument seems to assume that one interpretation that Adam, Eve, Cain, and Abel were literally the only humans alive at that exact moment, is the only possible reading of the text. The verses about Cain fearing that “whoever finds me will kill me” do raise interpretive questions, but they are not necessarily contradictions. They can be read in multiple ways depending on how one understands the scope and purpose of Genesis. Some interpret the passage as implying that Adam and Eve’s family had already grown significantly over time, while others think the narrative may leave room for people outside the immediate family line being discussed. The text itself is sparse, so there is naturally debate about it. Another point that is inaccurate is the claim that later readers “invented” the idea that Adam and Eve had more children. Genesis 5:4 explicitly states that Adam “had other sons and daughters.” The text does not name all of them because Genesis often focuses only on figures important to the narrative. Seth, for example, is specifically mentioned later in Genesis 4:25 after Abel’s death. So the idea that Cain had siblings is not something created out of nowhere to “patch a hole.” As for Cain’s wife, that has historically been interpreted in different ways. Some traditions interpret her as a sister or close relative, while others argue that Genesis is not attempting to describe every human being who existed at the time. The text itself does not directly identify her, so there is room for interpretation. The interpretation about incest also assumes modern laws and later biblical commandments were already in place at the very beginning of Genesis. Even within traditional interpretations, the prohibition against close-relative marriage does not appear until much later in the biblical narrative.—

Just because he created Adam and Eve as adults. Doesn’t mean God didn’t create others.
