Okay a couple things here....

1. The bible talks about a generation of people before Adam and Eve which witnessed Lucifers fall,(which makes sense because if Lucifers job was to bring praise to God from the earth before he fell, what prasie was he bringing if humans weren't around yet) Adam and eve was a fresh start, which is seen in both science and history considering the neanderthals are not genetically related to us and history claims they died off before Adam and Eve would have come, and with history it seems like all society boomed in the middle east including the agricultural revolution after Adam and Eve, proving they were in the likeness of God with creativity. And also we know Adam was a farmer, the first farmer, which lines up with timelines aswell.

2. All translations of any Jewish texts are going to be unsuccessful to a certain degree because they have so much depth and meaning within even just the letters themselves. For instance, the letter Yod not only represents a sound, but a number of 10 and also infinity, as well as other meanings like hand, power, humility, a moving force, ect. But the meanings are all connected in some way, and this is the case with all the Hebrew letters and words. So trying to say that the earth was created in 6 days is a hard one to answer at face value, considering God is outside of time and when God created the world it was stated that he created a fully developed world, not some rock that he waited millions of years to form.
