Subject: Cain and Seth's wives descended from who |
Bible Note: Hi Emmaus my post was to long so I will have to answer on two smaller ones.Part 1 Hi Emmaus you write Do we know that there was more than one man and woman created? No! In fact Genesis states clearly that Eve was "the mother of all the living." ( Gen 3:20) Meaning that all are decended from her. Do we know that more then one man and one woman was created , I think we do ,let me explain first you have the serpent in the garden it can talk and reason, this is one of the other tribes of man. Cains wife from one of the other tribes. Sons of God saw the daughters of men,Sons of God Adams tribe , daughters of men another tribe. Look at what man is called in Jude 10 a brute beast now look what Jonah 3:8 says 8But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry mightily unto God: yea, let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the violence that is in their hands. You can see that this beast puts on sackcloth and crys to God,it is also with man told to turn from its evil ways and from the violence that is in its hands. So you can see this beast is again from another tribe of man,as the bible makes a differance between man and beast.Now to the second point mother of all living. This is in referance to the seed she would bear Jesus Christ in whom all live,not to all the races of mankind for 2 reasons.1)She had not had any children at the time Adam called her the mother of all living.2)If this is concerning mankind would she not be called the mother of all the dead because from her all are then born in sin,and the wages of sin are death. Now concerning be fruitful and multiply , we do not know if they were going to fulfill this or not as we do not know how long they were in the garden before the fall. Now you qoute Ro.5:15-17 and 1Cor.15:45-49 Concerning Romans it was because the law came into effect that death reigned but in Christ who fulfilled the law we can reign in life. |
