Adam signifie être humain, humanité — et est aussi le nom du premier homme. Le mot relie l'humanité à l'adamah (la terre) d'où nous avons été tirés et à laquelle nous retournons.

Adam is the name of the first man and the Hebrew word for humanity itself. Genesis ties it to adamah, the ground — pointing to humanity’s creaturely origin and the dignity of being formed by God.

Paul will later set Adam — the first head of humanity, through whom sin entered the world — against “the last Adam,” Christ, through whom righteousness and life come. The word reaches from Genesis to the gospel.
