Subject: Cain and Abel wives. Who are they? |
Bible Note: Hi, danig... I think we can see definitive chronological sequence, but the omission of detail between Genesis 4:15 and 16 may not necessarily imply anything about duration. After all, we've got a subsequent statement "...gave birth to Enoch; and he built a city, and called the name of the city Enoch..." (v17b). We could coin a new proverb: Enoch wasn't built in a day. :-) Still and all, thinking about your phrase "wasn't too long" (sic) I wonder what that might mean to the prediluvian patriarchs, considering they generally lived more than eight centuries?
