2 | Why did God not create more one couple ? | Gen 2:7 | Hank | 8926 | ||
No one knows why God created only one couple but God himself, and He has not revealed that information to mankind. Neither does anyone know for certain whom Cain married. It has long been a widely-held assumption that she was a descendent of Adam and Eve and thus a near relative of Cain. It is the only assumption that would appear valid in light of the Genesis account. The prohibition against incest did not come until later. By Moses' time, this kind of close marriage was forbidden (Lev.18:7-17) because of genetic decay.... The Bible does not tell us all we may wish to know about the creation or the Creator. To assume it does is wishful thinking. It contains all that God has chosen to reveal of himself and not a word more. It does answer the most crucial question any human being has ever asked or ever can ask, "What must I do to be saved?" --Hank | ||||||
