[QUOTE="mmksparbud, post: 72099281, member: 297518"] Of course----The bible does not say that Cain and Able were the first children Adam and Eve had--they only mentioned males. Females, unless they were of some great importance, were rarely mentioned and never in the genealogy (except Ruth). The line of descent was from the first born male. The only reason Able was mentioned was because he was next in line and Seth then became the next successor as Cain lost his inheritance as the firstborn after being expelled for killing Able. Adam and Eve would have had several females before Cain. They married their sisters back then as there were no genetic defects to pass along, the prohibition against close family members marrying came much later after the flood. Abraham was married to his 1/2 sister, Sarah. The bible states Cain knew his wife---not when he first married her. There is no mention of Able having had a wife or not, nor of any children nor how old they were when Cain killed Able. Both Cain and Able could have had many, ,many children and grandchildren, and great grand children. Today, one woman can have over 20 children and I knew one woman who had 22. That is only during about a 40 year childbearing lifespan. These people lived for hundreds of years. You're talking one woman giving birth to several hundred children, basically a whole town and their children giving birth---Even today, women have had children even less than one year apart (my husband has a brother 9 mths younger) They were in perfect health, at a child a year--not counting twins or more, by the time Adam and Eve died they would have been scalp high in descendants. There were lots of other people by the time Cain was expelled for killing Able. [/QUOTE]
