Bible, Genesis 2:16-17 And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; 17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you[a] shall surely die.”

Bible, Genesis 5:3-5 And Adam lived one hundred and thirty years, and begot a son in his own likeness, after his image, and named him Seth. 4 After he begot Seth, the days of Adam were eight hundred years; and he had sons and daughters. 5 So all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years; and he died.

Detractor:"Hey, when Adam lived 800 years after he eats the prohibited fruit, then he's not died at the same day, so the Bible contradicts themself!"

Bible, Psalm 90:1-4 Lord, You have been our [a]dwelling place in all generations. 2 Before the mountains were brought forth, Or ever You [b]had formed the earth and the world, Even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God. 3 You turn man to destruction, And say, “Return, O children of men.”4 For a thousand years in Your sight Are like yesterday when it is past, And like a watch in the night.

CONCLUSION:800 years = fewer as "1 day" (1000 years) in God's sight, so in God's sight (not the humanly one) Adam died at the same day when he eats the prohibited fruit!

Detractor:"Oh, I see..."

CONCLUSION2:The Bible interprets themself anytime, completely without "limited humanly wisdom", that is why it's anytime God's merit when we understand anything thanks to our relationship to the Lord.😊

To the passages of the Bible I've quoted anyone, so I've stolen nothing, not from God and not from humans, hope anyone could see this (I also hope you see I'm not a criminal human).
