Evolutionists suggest that early man was ape like in appearance and in intelligence, with language skills developing much later in the time line. But Scripture confirms that man was created with language and intelligence ready to be used.
As we see in the following passage, the first woman was created after man had already named all the animals. In other words, he had language and intelligence from the very beginning!
Genesis 2:18-23 And the LORD God said, “It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him.” Out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to Adam to see what he would call them. And whatever Adam called each living creature, that was its name. So Adam gave names to all cattle, to the birds of the air, and to every beast of the field. But for Adam there was not found a helper comparable to him. And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. Then the rib which the LORD God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man. And Adam said: “This is now bone of my bones And flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man.”
Not only were Adam’s words discernible and useful for communication, they indicate a depth of understanding as evidenced by his fist recorded words, stating that He knew God had created the woman from his own flesh and bone, and he even explained why he gave her the name of woman.
Scripture teaches that the first man was a thinking, intelligent man with God given language abilities from the very beginning!
