Bible Question: Where did Cain find his wife, was she his sister? |
Bible Answer: Where did Cain's wife come from? Was she his sister? The Biblical answer: THERE IS NONE GIVEN! All anyone on this forum or off it knows about Cain's wife is given in the first 14 words of Genesis 4:17: "Cain had relations with his wife and she conceived and gave birth to Enoch..." Anything said beyond that is, you may be abundantly assured, purely speculation. --Hank |
