You didn't read them so, I'll just post them here I guess then.
Cain was more than likely banished to the "land of fugitiveness" by himself, if God would have sent him away with anyone, I think it would mention that, don't you...? It does not say "Cain and his wife (or his "theoretical" sister)", or "Cain and his family", just Cain... and that He "knew his wife" is just an OT way of saying he had sex with his wife and had a son...
More than likely he took his wife from that land that none of the "theoretical, supposed other", or "theoretical other supposed brothers and sisters", that the Bible makes absolutely no mention of, etc, except Seth and his (their) children long after that, or after Seth, and definitely after Cain and Abel, and Able was banished, etc... Anyway, none of them, even if Cain had had them (brothers and sisters) even before he was banished, would have even been in or gone to that land (yet) with Him, or would have been in that land at that time (yet) with him (Cain), etc...
So, He (Cain) was more than likely banished alone, and before he had any other brothers or sisters, let alone that went with him, etc, meaning he more then likely took or got his wife from "where now again"...? Or from who's "stock" or who's children again...? If it was not one of his siblings that was banished with him again...? Again, etc...?
We don't know for sure, but it does allow for the possibility of another race possibly...?
And that's all I'm saying...
The Bible does not mention that he had any other brothers or sisters before he was banished, let alone that went with him, etc... It only does mention Adam and Eve having other children after Seth, but that was before Cain and Abel and before Cain was banished or sent away, etc... But makes no mention of any "before that", so...?
It's just a "possibility" is all I'm saying...
God Bless!
@BobRyan said this to me after that:
1. I think it did when it mentions his wife having a child by him after he left.
2. The text says nothing at all about the "land of forgetfulness".
3. The Bible says that Adam had other children but does not give the order in which they were born other than the fact that Cain, Able were first and after the death of Able Seth was the first son.
Then I said:
1. The Bible makes no mention of Adam and Eve having any other children during the time of Cain and Abel, it only does after that, and after Seth, and after Cain was already banished or gone...
2. The land of Nod, is the land of the fugitives, or fugitiveness...
3. Correct, "after" the death of Abel, and "after" Cain was already sent away, and only "after that" did Adam and Eve have "other children", not before (more than likely) (or at least the Bible does not say or does not mention if they did, or that they did "before that" anyway) (and I think it would as it does mention it "afterwards", etc)...
Anyway, just something to consider, OK...?
God Bless!
But there are so many points to argue with you that I don't even know where to begin so...?
If you knew any kind of truth at all, you'd know that the earth is much older than just 6,000 years old, but "whatever" man...
Denial isn't just a river in Egypt I guess...
I also encouraged some to check out these posts as well, not that you even probably will, etc...
Genesis and Creation, Days are long "ages" ect...?
Genesis and Creation, Days are long "ages" ect...?
And, your need to be right, when you are clearly wrong, just shows your arrogance (and ignorance as well) also, etc... And is very off-putting to me, etc...
It is people like you that are the problem with Christianity, and is why it will probably die, etc...
Your the one(s) being part of the problem and not part of the solution...
And the fact that your calling it "sound doctrine" is all to laughable to me...
God Bless!
The only way that Cain's wife could not be a daughter of Adam, is if the creation of man and woman in Genesis 1 is different from the creation of Adam and Eve in Genesis 2. I don't find it likely, because even in genetics there is evidence of what they call the Mitochondrial Eve. Every single human on this planet traces their matriarchal lineage to her (the mitochondria have a different DNA sequence than our own, and they come from the egg cell, so it's traced by matriarchal lineage rather than patriarchal).
