Subject: where did cain's wife come from? |
Bible Note: Hello, Cyclist! Well, at all events, my former post accomplished something if it gave you a chuckling respite from the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune :-) Of course, if Cain indeed married a wife who was a member the human race, and if one accepts as being true the biblical account of Gensis, then one must conclude that this wife of Cain was a descendent of Adam and Eve, from whom have issued all generations of mankind. If Cains wife were not homo sapiens, then one is free I suppose to speculate that he may have married a dinosaur. Pages of forum gibberish have been filled with speculations about Cain's wife and dinosaurs, and enough words have been used to exhaust roughly half the supply afforded by the unabridged Oxford English, but a consensus has been reached on neither. --Hank |
