Hi BB187! When you have time, please complete a profile so that we can get to know you better. Now to your question. In Genesis 4:4-16 we are told that Adam and Eve's son Cain, after the murder of his brother Abel, was banished from the presence of God. He went to land east of Eden, where he and his wife began to have children. We aren't told the wife's name, and I think that's by design--we aren't told the names of all of Adam and Eve's children but since Adam lived more than 800 years, we can be sure that there were many children. But the short answer is that Adam and Eve's children had children with each other. That is called incest now, and it is wrong for moral and biological reasons. Exodus chapter 20, Leviticus chapters 15-22, Numbers 5, and Deuteronomy chapters 22-27 are a few references prohibiting all sorts of sexual immorality. God bless you, and know that God accomplished the creation of mankind so that we would all be related, and Jesus's life, death and resurrection assures that we all can be reunited in God's presence.

Hi, Just a quick thought on this subject. The reason we are not to involve in incest now is primarily biological. But if we consider the time in that Adam and Eve were having children, we should recognize that the earth was still relatively young and many of the diseases and illnesses that exist today, were not in the earth at that time. This would also I believe explain the long lives that they had. Consider Methusala who lived to be 969 years old and Adam who lived to be 939 years old. God commanded them to be "fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth." Genesis 1:28. Also refer to Genesis 4th chapter. |
