Subject: who did cain marry? |
Bible Note: Brian, WRONG again!! You have stated.. "Now, with that understanding that other people did exist in the world, by the time Cain was banished from Eden, is it possible that what Genesis is saying is that Adam and Eve are the first people God made, but not the only people God made." Where, may I ask, did you get this??? It OBVIOUSLY cannot be found in the Bible! Adam and Eve were the ONLY people that were directly created by God!! If you say anything more, then you are simply adding your speculation into the text! You have also stated: "If that is the case, Cain had plenty of opportunity to meet and marry a non-relative." This is UTTER NONSENSE and should not have been posted here on a "Study Bible Forum".. Do you truly have a BIBLE? Did you read it? Adam and Eve were the ONLY two people that were directly created by God. EVERYONE else is a descendant of these two. If you say anything different, then you are not only a laughingstock of a Christian, but you are dangerously bordering on heresy! Brian, I simply could not remain silent here! This post is clearly in contradiction to Biblical teaching in Genesis 1-2.. I seriously suggest that you would re-think this if you honestly say that you believe in God! If you are going to continue this speculation and borderline heresy, then I suggest that you get off of this Forum. Nolan |
