AMPLIFIED 2015 | Genesis 6:4 There were Nephilim (men of stature, notorious men) on the earth in those days--and also afterward--when the sons of God lived with the daughters of men, and they gave birth to their children. These were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown (great reputation, fame). [Num 13:33] |
Bible Question: My question is, "God created two people in the begining that is Adam and Eve who later bore Cain and Abel, now how long did it take for them to have these two sons? Secondly If Abel died then where did the rest of other people come from? |
Bible Answer: Livingword :: Welcome and thanks for your question. ..... As regarding your first question, Scripture does not say how much time elapsed before Adam and Eve bore Cain and Abel. Scripture does make it clear that Cain and Abel were not the only two children of Adam and Eve (see Genesis 5:4). Finally, the answer to your last question, "where did the rest of the other people come from?" is this: God created only two people, Adam and Eve (see Genesis 2:7-25). All other human beings who have ever lived and all those who are living today are descendents of the one man (Adam) and the one woman (Eve) whom God created. --Hank |
