    Cain married his sister. God had no forbidding of this until generations later when He then gave a commandment to stop. Through science we now know the reasons for forbidding marriage between close relatives after time passed. The gene pool took some time to degenerate from the perfect state God made Adam and Eve in. Remember, even Eve was taken from Adam's DNA. All mankind has decended from Adam and Eve.

    that's what I thought, all of Adam and Eve's children weren't listed in the Bible, so it was probably his sister. But genetics were very different in those days.

    Ir was one of his sisters ! If Adam and Eve were the first people , from were he could find a woman?

    EVE YES THAT WAS HER NAME ,WOMAN = OUT OF MAN BECUASE GOD TOOK ADAMS RIB AND CREATED EVE EQUAL THUS NOT BELOW NOR ABOVE BUT EQUAL TOT ADAM. THEN CAINS WIFE WAS HIS SISTER FOR THUS STARTED MANKIND AND YES I THINK THAT THE DNA WAS DIFFERENT THEN AND AS TIME WENT ON GOD FORBADE INCEST BECAUSE HE KNEW WAT WOULD BE THE OUTCOME OF IT.HOPE TO HAVE HELPED

    It is not said the name of the woman that Cain produced his children with. It was not one of the offspring of Adam and Eve. All places where the name of Cain are mentioned are Ge 4:1, Heb 11:4, and 1Jo 3:12.

    The Bible says Cain fled to the Land Of Nod and took a wife; it didn't say it was a woman. I think he took an ape for a wife and thats where all the cavemen came from.

    CAINS WIFE................isnt she charity or chastity in emmerdale!!!!!!!!!!!

    Well I think that was then and they were that then this is now and we are this now try explaining broadband and reuters to folks 1000s of years ago perhaps you could draw a picture perhaps we could think god and science are on the same wavelength god does move in mysterious wavelength for example

    Joshua

    that god moves in different wavelengths is possible HE IS GOD AND ABOVE EVERYTHING THE BIBLE SAYS !!!

    Well there you go thanks for that simple and precise answer Mollie Lemore I always wondered why I didnt answer my own questions what with my queries and your answers we will have this cracked I think religion is like politics them that be prefer it to be ambiguous!!!!!!!

    Eve was called 'Woman' prior to being called Eve. Eve was the name given her because she was the mother of all living. - (a fact not often taken into account by many theologians). The occurrence of the naming takes place long before Cain killed Abel and moved on to Nod. If she truly became a mother before Cain and Abel, then it must be understood that Cain, Abel and Seth are mentioned specifically because of their roles in the story of humankind, the entrance of physical death and God's plan of redemption.

    A glaring missing link of the bible. Incest is incest. No matter how any apologist may wish to justify this mortal sin. What other sinful exceptions are considered pardonable ? None that I can think of. I'm open to reading them without prejudice.

    all sin is pardonable, except blaspheme against the holy ghost

    Up north we call that "skating" around the question.

    Recent archeology in the area of the middle east suggest that Humans and Neanderthals probably did interbreed for a time, so She could have been a half-breed or full Neanderthal.

    How come the bible doesn't mention it ? Maybe because is to mix creation with evolution ?

    Interesting answer. thank you.

    Whose to say the first humans weren't hermephradites where does darwin place hermephradites in his evolution when was the bible written and would they have known they were hermephradites i always like to know there is a god and work from that I put myself in his position and think what would I do lets say humans put their interpretation on history and when god saw his only son and friend being tortured whose to say it was excruciating because by rights god owns pain and as far as I am concerned all the images of christ are of him serene and trance like and possibly the soldiers shoved a spear in his side because he didn't scream in pain as far as I know there was a emotional mob around that time then where do you stop at what emotion the emotion that fights and protects against dinosaeurs and then some nutter uses that emotion to rape it is after all humans that let the paedophiles out knowing they cannot be cured then does god take control of the law where does he stop at music moguls who make a fortune and then hire clever accountants to hide their money abroad therefore taking a social worker out of the system by paying reduced taxes and leaving them vulnerable to paedophiles but they entertain us and should god want us not to be entertained it would seem to me everytime i listen to the debate on god it always boils down to the same thing he is regarded as nothing more than our bitch doing our dirty work for us whilst we sit and be entertained ask not what god can do for us but what can we do for him welcome to the 21st century!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
