Genesis

No it all physically happened. Genealogy ofLuke, bud,

No, not everything, in the same way that it isn't all literal historical journalism.

It's not "historical", in the sense that the book only begins to chronicle the lives of particular people and a strict series of events beginning with Abraham. But it's certainly not allegory.

No, only modernist homos think otherwise.

No. Yes. Sorta. It reads really silly to modern people simply because translation is poor. And why is translation poor? Because (((subversives))) have been trying their damndest to make the religion unhealthy and stupid. I wasn’t a literal serpent in Eden. Serpent was a common insult for deceiver. The real lesson of Eden is don’t fall for subversive ideology, not acknowledging evil sends you to hell.

No. It all happened as Genesis said it happened. Otherwise we wouldn't have several other Biblical texts prior to Christ backing up its authenticity, being:
Enoch, Jubilees, the Book of Joseph and Aseneth, The Testament of the Twelve Patriarchs, all of which expand upon Genesis and prove its authenticity as a true history.
Besides, if Genesis were not true, then why did Christ mention Adam and Eve as literal figures, and why, in Church tradition, are they specifically first 2 He rescued from Sheol?

Genesis was written a thousand years after the earliest events in it. Do you think there were previous books or a series of scrolls that it collated, or do you think it was straight from oral history?

What do you mean?
Abraham is the literal Adam of Genesis, who represent how the Hebrews view (real and the originator of) humanity.

There are 2 answers for this based on tradition.
1, as a Copt, would be the Ethiopian/Eritrean Bible books of Enoch and Jubilees. The Ethiopian and Eritrean Coptic Churches believe them to be divine scripture. Enoch specifically in its final chapters outlines how it will be passed onto Noah and survive the Flood. The Armenian Apostolic scripture of The Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs collaborate on this idea. Jubilees is like Genesis with additional information like the wives of the Patriarchs and parts of the Pentaeuch. Genesis could have simply been a combination of both Jubilees and Enoch together as a sort of abridged version.

2, and the more accepted theory among the Churches, is that Moses was given the first 5 books of the Bible by God Himself on Mt. Sinai and wrote them down for all the Israelites to have.

wut? the pentateuch was written by Moses inspired by the Holy Spirit, what Moses received at Sinai was the 10 commandments, and there was a second time because of Israelites and the Golden Calf episode
