Bible Question:
Dear forum members, Why did God not have regard for Cain's offering? Was it heart attitude, type of offering, or something else? God's Day To You, Tamara |
Bible Answer: Hebrews 11:4 says Abel had a more "exellent sacrifice" than Cain. Able offered the first of his flock and the fat. Lev 3:16 states that "all the fat is YHWH's". Cain offered a bloodless sacrifice as well. Hope this helps a little bit. |
