In the New Testament, the Greek word Ἀδάμ refers to the first human created by God, as described in the Genesis account. Adam is often used to represent humanity as a whole, particularly in theological discussions about sin and redemption. The name "Adam" is also used to draw parallels between the first man and Jesus Christ, who is sometimes referred to as the "last Adam" (1 Corinthians 15:45).
