Why would you object if Adam age was a parable? Why would you object if God directly let him live for a very long time? Let God be God, and He'll do it the best way.
Barbarian observes:
Ah, but Genesis, according to you, is just a literal history, not an illustration of our relationship with God.. Care to explain your new interpretation of Adams long life span?
The consensus among Christians has been since ancient times, that the creation story is allegorical.
40-50 years of age for "ancient man" according to archaelogical "evidence"
And historical observations. Ancient physicians were aware that uncivilized humans didn't live very long; at best the Biblical 70 years old or so.
930 years for Adam....that is quite an evolutionism leap, would you not agree?
Seeing the way the rest of us have always been, one would have to conclude it was either (like much of the creation story) a parable, or possibly God's direct intervention for Adam. Why does that bother you so? Why is it so hard to accept the Biblical three score and ten?
I think you worry too much about all sorts of things that have no bearing on your salvation. It's fun to argue about them, but don't let it drag you down.
Matthew 22:37 Jesus said to him: Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole mind.
38This is the greatest and the first commandment.
39And the second is like to this: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
40 On these two commandments dependeth the whole law and the prophets.
Listen to Him, and follow.
