| Dear Ostmarkgasse, Genesis 6:4 states that there are 'sons of God' and 'daughters of men.' Since angels are spiritual beings, they cannot procreate with humans, and are not the 'sons of God.' Therefore, these 'sons of God' could mean 'of Adam,' compared with the creation of man in Genesis 1:27, who would be the 'daughters of men.' If we insist that Genesis 1:27 speaks of Adam and Eve, indeed I can only guess that Cain married and unmentioned sister. (I don't favor this interpretation) | ||||||

| Since Adam and Eve are the father and mother of all humans, it makes sense that there was definite intermarriage for a time. Adam was 130 years old when Seth was born (Genesis 5:3). Adam lived 930 years total and the scripture says he begat many sons and daughters. That was all there was, they had to intermarry. Cain probably married a sister or a niece. Eventually God put limits on who you could marry. | ||||||
