Bible Question:
if adam and eve, cain abel are the first family why are their people in the land of Nod and how did they get there. cain was sent to that land correct?????? and did marry??????? |
Bible Answer: The Land of Nod-----means wandering,vagracy. Cain built the city called Enoch.In the Amplified, it says that after cain and abel over 100 years had passed and adam and eve would have had other sons and daughters.Back then it was ok to marry sisters.There would have been about 32,000 relatives of adam and eve.What we need to understand is that we must go back to the hebrew and study from history.
