If I may...UnScriptural, as the following verses show:
4 These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens,
Adam's Earth was made the 3rd Day according to Gen 1:10
5 And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground. 6 But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.
The plants, herbs and trees GREW on the 3rd Day. Gen 1:12
7 And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
See? Man was made the 3rd Day. In order to be sure, read the next verses.
8 And the Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there He put the man whom He had formed. 9 And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every TREE that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
Gen 1:12 And the earth brought forth grass, (plants) and herb yielding seed after His kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after His kind: and God saw that it was good. Gen 1:13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.
Amen?
The second portion of your Scriptures comes from an entirely different chapter of Genesis than the first, and is also highly misleading. Yes, God created all the plants and trees and all things that are green on the third day, but that does not mean He created the Garden on the third day. The text you quote specifically says that God planted the Garden- a task which is rather difficult to do without plants to, you know. Plant. Admittedly this is God were talking about so He could have easily done it somehow, but your entire premise is based around this confusing interpretation of what amounts to an easy to understand verse.
