    GENESIS 1 26 28 SAYS THAT GOD created man in his own image so he created man and woman and they were told to replenish the Earth and they would have Dominion over all living creatures Is this where CAIN and Abels wives came from before Adam was Created
  • Sam on Genesis 4:9 - 12 years ago
    response to josh comment. I agree God is all knowing. I just don't know if I can agree with the later part of your statement. " He asked Cain that question to test his honesty! " God already knew what Cain would say.
  • Jarad on Genesis 4 - 12 years ago
    I love the bible
  • Lydia on Genesis 4 - 12 years ago
    God was please with Able offering because it came from the heart,Cain offering didn't come from from the heart,cain wanted something and when you give to get God is not happy (cain gave and it wasn't his best,he gave because he wanted to be God's favorite.)
  • Infer-Lynn on Genesis 4 - 12 years ago
    Dear Karen, women are very rarely mentioned in the bible because they are considered a part of man. Only significant woman with a true contribution and identity of their own are mentioned by name. Eve is significant because she is the first. Do you know Noah's wife where she came from or what her name is, what about lots wife? In the long list of names, only sons are mentioned by name, it doesn't mean daughters were not born. For this reason we will never really know Cain's wife.

    I dont get your question
  • Frank Tchale on Genesis 4 - 12 years ago
    something must have been wrong somewhere. These brothers couldn't have just killed one another for a simple reason.
  • K S REDDY on Genesis 4 - 12 years ago
    God was pleased as Abel offered a fat animal. God did not like Cain because his offering is not equal
    to that of Abel.This rule applies after millenniums even in the present day world a fat gift gets a greater weight with powerful and mighty.

  • Karen on Genesis 4:17 - 12 years ago
    This passage of the Bible has always bothered me. I read Trent's comment posted on 2010-01-13 and the Bible only mentions 4 people in existence. Was is possible as Trent suggested that the only way Cain knew his wife were from his mother? Or did Eve have daughters that were not mentioned in the Bible and the off springs moved to the Land of Nod? If the Lord God did create others, why were they not mentioned? This has always made me wonder, if more than one Adam and Eve were created and if so, why weren't they included? Thank you for taking the time to read this and hopefully someone will provide an answer.
  • Lionel on Genesis 4 - 12 years ago
    The word again in Hebrew means Eve continued in labor. Therefore Cain and Abel had to have been twins. She had Cain and then continued in labor and had Abel.
  • Rene gavito on Genesis 4:17 - 12 years ago
    The Holy Bible is sacred.Only God knows what's in their, if there's a facts missing or whatever what can we do? He's the Best and the Almighty...Gen.29:46" And they shall know that I am the Lord their God "..Amen.
  • Peter A. Njoku on Genesis 4:3 - 12 years ago
    There is no doubt that that was not the first time they were bringing offering to the Lord. The idea of a father being the head in family altar surely did not start today. The verse said Cain brought. You dont bring to yourself. You give to yourself. He must have brought to the High Priest, which surely was no other person but Adam. The two sacrifices must have been done in their presence. Both of them saw how each sacrifice was received, hence Cain's reaction. Abel's reaction must have provoked his elder brother who did not take it light. May I learn from Cain's reaction. I pray in Jesus name.
  • John blassingame 2nd on Genesis 4:26 - 12 years ago

  • Reynaldo on Genesis 4 - 12 years ago
    i think chapter 4 of genesis teach us the depper understanding of love and god done it 2 manifies his glory because god knows the plan for has so teach us more lessons
  • Ar on Genesis 4 - 12 years ago
    I suppose Cain married one of his younger sisters as Adam and Eve had many other children boys and girls after Cain and Abel, having in mind that there was no law or commandments yet. Any other suggessionns?
  • JANET on Genesis 4 - 12 years ago
    Who did Cain married? How come he got a wife when Adam and Eve had only 2 sons?
  • ULAFAYE WILLIAMS on Genesis 4 - 12 years ago
    I wonder what happen to cain after he killed his brother and God cursed him.
  • Chas on Genesis 4:10 - 12 years ago
    This s the Bible foretelling DNA Evidence....get it?
  • Richard on Genesis 4 - 12 years ago
    Ves No he didn't know the outcome we all have free will love.... that are loyal to him he does test.. Take Abraham and Isaac for example... God is going to use you he wants to know where your heart is..!! And then there are those like Kane That just don't care about anything Only that he was mad Because the Lord Saw that Abel's offering Was Of true heart and love toward him... For he gave the Lord his best...!!
  • Ves on Genesis 4:9 - 12 years ago
    If God knows all, why ask the question in the first place? It not as though he didn't know Cain would lie. His test is useless as he already knew the answer. Furthermore, did God not know Cain would kill Able? Even before their conceptions, God should have known the outcome, correct?
  • Richard on Genesis 4 - 12 years ago
    For those who have read my comments and the first three chapters..And have eyes to see and those who know the Word of God and feel it..Chapter 7 of Ezekiel is in effect..For all those who do believe and can see Stand strong because we have the rock we stand on the rock And the rock is our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ amen..
  • Sharlin on Genesis 4:15 - 12 years ago
    who are the peopl who will find Cain? According to Genesis there should be only 3 people living on earth...?
  • Robert on Genesis 4:2 - 12 years ago
    what happen to Cain after he killed Able
  • Nana J I on Genesis 4 - 12 years ago
    A lot of info can be found by reading the Forgotten Books of the Bible, especially on Adam and Eve. May not be proven as the Bible is, but does seem to nake a lot of sense
  • Chris on Genesis 4 - 12 years ago
    Verse 15 The Mark of Cain - What is it ?? The person who would confront Cain will know with out a doubt the Mark which God had put upon Cain for all-time as his punishment for his sin. The person will leave Cain to go his own way. Amen.
  • Lydia on Genesis 4 - 12 years ago
    Cain's offering was not rejected by God because of what he offered, its because of how he offered it. The Lord looks into our hearts.

    Cain must have married his sister. The Bible does not record any other creation except for Adam & Eve and we are told that after Cain & Abel Adam got other sons and daughters.
  • Lisa on Genesis 4 - 12 years ago
    Cain married before the bible mentions that Eve had daughters. So, therefore, Cain could not have married his sister.
  • Steve on Genesis 4 - 12 years ago
    Just wondering, Cain and Abel were Adam's sons, where did the other people come from??
  • Anonymous on Genesis 4 - 12 years ago
    "By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh." ( Hebrews 11:4)

    And from the Hebrew texts; "And Abel he too brought of the firstborn of his flocks and of their fattest, and the Lord turned to Abel and to his offering."

    And again, when we look to Jewish sacrificial practices we see that Fat represented perfection and good health in the sacrificial animal.
