Kalos Where did Cain get his wife? I want to change my answer. It wasn't wrong but it wasn't complete. Scientist after doing DNA research on the bodies, recently found in Nod, have successfully identified Cain’s wife. Her name was Elisabeth(notice the spelling Z's weren't invented yet). She was approximately 5 foot 2 with eyes a blue. She wore her hair back most of the time and from testing hair samples found in the grave she the color of her hair was brown sugar number 63. Elisabeth was a vegetarian which made her a perfect mate for Cain who was a farmer. They lived in a small 4 room clay hut with out door plumbing. Their main source of food was greens and wheat. From the implements found in the dig they know Cain was skilled in making clubs. The skull of what is thought to be Cain's was also found and there seemed to be some kind of tattoo that actually etched the bone. The words are hard to make out but study has shown them to read "Do not t uch! God!" The second letter of the last word is unreadable. Scientist are trying to figure out what the message meant but suspect the tattoo had religious significance since they found the word God. Doing further research they found she carried the same DNA sequence of Adam but was approximately 6-9 generations later judging by the generic mutations that has taken place. It is believed she is a fifth cousin to Cain on his fathers side. But there is a possibility she is the third cousin twice removed to Cain on his mothers side. A lesser known scientist feels certain she was Cain’s second cousin twice removed on his fathers side. One crazy scientist even speculated she might be his niece 5 times removed. However evidence of DNA degeneration makes this doubtful This evidence however does prove without a doubt she was a distant relative of Cain’s. Distant in that Nod was pretty far from Eden. Even further if you went west. We now have proof Cain besides being a murderer was also involved in incest and the offspring of this relationship were crazier than bed bugs. Now that we have these facts I hope this information will stop all the idle speculation of where did Cain’s wife come from. I guess now the next logical question is who named the town of Nod, Nod? :-) There Kalos and you said I didn't know nothing! :-) Now I have to really pray!! EdB |

Cain and the Land of Nod 'Some claim that the passage in Genesis 4:16-17 means that Cain went to the land of Nod and found a wife. Thus, they can conclude there must have been another race of people on the earth, who were not descendants of Adam, who produced Cain's wife. ' And Cain went out from the presence of the Lord, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden. And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bore Enoch: and he built a city, and he called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch. 'From what has been stated previously, it is clear that all humans, Cain's wife included, are descendants of Adam. However, this passage does not say that Cain went to the land of Nod and found a wife. John Calvin, commenting on these verses, states: ' From the context we may gather that Cain, before he slew his brother, had married a wife; otherwise Moses would now have related something respecting his marriage.[13] 'Cain was married before he went to the land of Nod. He didn't find a wife there, but "knew" (had sexual relations with) his wife.[14] 'Others have argued that because Cain built a "city" in the land of Nod, there must have been a lot of people there. However, the Hebrew word translated as "city" need not mean what we might imagine from the connotations of "city" today. The word meant a "walled town" or a protected encampment.[15] Even a hundred people would be plenty for such a "city." Nevertheless, there could have been many descendants of Adam on the earth by the time of Abel's death (http://christiananswers.net/q-aig/aig-c004.html). ------------- EdB: Thank you for the good information. kalos |
