About the middle of the seventeenth century Isaac de la Peyrerc in an odd Httle volume entitled s"The Pre- Adam Hes, attempted to prove that there were two creations of men=the first on the sixth day of the week of creation. when God created man male and fe- male. The rabbis interpret the above passage of holy writ as meaning that the first race of human beings were creatures in which both sexes were united in the same individual. Accord ing to be h Peyrere, Adam was the re- suit Of the second creation, the "male and female being having been the pro gehltor of the gentilcs, Adam the fa ther of the Jews. A great many peo- Die fell in with the views of De Ia pey- rcre, and he was the lion of the hour. His followers were called "Pre-Adam- ties, and they increased in numbers rapidly until finally the movement be- came so strong that the founder of the sect was compelled to go to Rome and abJure his doctrine at the feet of Pope Alexander VII.
