So now, the debate will need to focus on whether Adam was the 1st man created on the sixth day.
According to Gen 1 Man and Woman (unnamed) were created last. According Gen 2, Man (named Adam) was created first. So wahtever the case, Adam was not created on the sixth day. Either a man and a woman were created on the sixth day, after the animlas, and we don't know their names, or Adam was created first and the animals after.

Huntard, my understanding is that the oldest manuscripts do not name Adam until Genesis 3:21.
No idea. Got a source on that?
The term the man, is used exclusively in most translations in both chapters one and two. The KJ and Douay are the only major ones which name Adam in Genesis 2:20, the first mention of him in the KJ version.
WHat are the "major" ones Buz? I looked it up and found these version who mention adam in gen 2:
NIV
NASB
Amplified Bible
ESV
NKJV
NCV
21st century KJ
DT
NIRV
NIVUK
TNIV
And that's only the English ones. Are you saying that all these are not "major" ones?
