God created females on the 6th day of creation, according to Genesis 1:27.
Genesis presents two accounts of creation. Here's a breakdown:
Creation Accounts in Genesis
| Account Source | Order of Creation | Day |
|---|---|---|
| Genesis 1:27 | Both male and female created simultaneously. | 6th day |
| Genesis 2 | Male created first, then female created later. | Details span parts of the 6th day. |
According to Genesis 1:27, "So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.” This suggests the simultaneous creation of both genders on the 6th day. However, Genesis 2 describes a sequential creation, with the man being created first, followed by the woman.
Therefore, depending on the interpretation of Genesis 1 and 2, females were created on the 6th day, either simultaneously with males or shortly thereafter.
