Sheila, I would say no! Adam wasn't born. he was created, so I would say, he didn't have a birth. So I don't believe he had a birthright!
Now the first Adam gave away our right to eternal life, when he ate of the forbidden fruit. Bringing death upon all mankind. 
The second Adam gave it back, we now have eternal life Jesus death & reserection. A perfect sacrafice for our sins, that we might live eternally with Him! 
If this is wrong, update my mind!  OK?  |

a birthright is something you pass on to your children, usually the eldest. adam did have children.
God gave adam dominion over the earth, a chance to live forever, and the right to walk with God in the garden. i guess you'd call this a creation right in his case. but it would have been a birthright for his children if he had not given it to satan.
it reminds me of jacob & esau. esau gave away his birthright for something to eat. i kinda think adam did the same thing. |
