1 | Cain and Seth's wives descended from who | Genesis | Emmaus | 44786 | ||
linjmer, There is no sin in Cain or Seth marrying their sisters or their cousins if that be the case since at that time there was no law against it and it was necessary to "be fruitful and multiply." Therefore the sin of incest is not an issue here as some may suggest. How closely related do they think Adam and Eve were based on Genesis 1 and 2? The absence of discussion about other sons and daugthers of Adam and Eve and their children does not mean they did not exist at the time Cain married, only that they were not central characters in the narrative being presented. Genesis 5 3: When Adam had lived a hundred and thirty years, he became the father of a son in his own likeness, after his image, and named him Seth. 4: The days of Adam after he became the father of Seth were eight hundred years; and he had other sons and daughters. 5: Thus all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years; and he died.

Scott, God's law then, was not to eat of the tree. But, if as you claimed earlier Adam was not the first man, then his sin could not have been passed down through all mankind which it was. That was why Christ came, to repair what Adam had done. |

Hi Meusing let me see if I can condense what I have said earlier: God created the living creature , this is mankind with all the different races. God looks at the living creature that he has made and says lets make man in our image. So God takes one of the races of man that he created and puts him in the garden to train him. This may sound strange at first but God has always called out a people , Abraham out of Haran , Israel out of Egypt , the elect out of this world. In each of these God has called his chosen people to become seperated from the rest of the races of man. Now to become seperated means to not be carnally minded like the rest of the races of mankind , but to be spiritually minded ( my definition). So then God takes this race of man , the Hebrew or tribe of Israel and puts him in the garden to be made into his image ( God calls Israel his firstborn son. EX.4:22 Thus saith the LORD, Israel is my son, even my firstborn.) though obedience to his commands. Now the reason why sin was passed down was because the law came into effect for it is by the law that we have knowledge of sin. Ro.3:20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. |
