Bereshit 

בראשית

The depiction of the creation of the first human being in the Torah differs from the depiction of the creation of the rest of the creatures. God speaks of this creation in the plural (“Let us fashion”), and the Sages interpret that expression as a deliberation that was conducted either between God and Himself or between God and the ministering angels. This deliberation concerned the question of whether it is indeed appropriate to create humans. 

Rabbi Shimon said: At the time that the Holy One, blessed be He, came to create the first person, the ministering angels divided into factions and groups. Some of them said: He should be created! Some of them said: He should not be created! That is the meaning of that which is written: “Kindness and truth have met; justice and peace have touched” (Psalms 85:11).<footnote data-num="5"/> Kindness says: He should be created, as he performs acts of kindness. Truth says: He should not be created, as he is falsehood in his entirety. Righteousness says: He should be created, as he performs acts of righteousness. Peace says: He should not be created, as he epitomizes strife. What did the Holy One, blessed be He, do? He took Truth and cast it to the earth.<source>(Bereshit Rabba [Theodor-Albeck] 8; Pesikta Rabbati [Ish Shalom] 14: Para) </source>
