No one really knows for sure. It only specifically talks about 3. Then it says that Adam lived for 930 and had sons and daughters. That is the best number anyone could come up with. 930 is a long time to be having children. My Grandmother had 13 over 21 years. (from 16 - 37) Many, many, many children could be born in 930 years. However Eves body would have been worn out after awhile. =)

Only three of Adam's children (Cain, Abel, and Seth) are explicitly named in Genesis, although it does state that there were other sons and daughters as well (Genesis 5:4). In Jubilees, two daughters are named - Azûrâ being the first, and Awân, who was born after Seth, Cain, Abel, nine other sons, and Azûrâ. Jubilees goes on to state that Cain later married Awân and Seth married Azûrâ, thus, accounting for their descendants. However, according to Genesis Rabba and other later sources, either Cain had a twin sister, and Abel had two twin sisters, or Cain had a twin sister named Lebuda, and Abel a twin sister named Qelimath. In the Conflict of Adam and Eve with Satan, Cain's twin sister is named Luluwa, and Abel's twin sister is named Aklia.

The bible gives us three names: Cain, Abel, and Seth but there's a line that says: "Abel lays with his wife" which means there were other people and if there were other poeple and Adam and Eve were the first poeple, then they had to have had lots of other kids.

The Bible only mentions the ones that have to do with the story. With Adam living for so many years, I would expect that they had hundreds.

I don't know about that in Christ Religion. But in my Religion, Islam, Adam and Hawa (Eve) have 5 children.
a. First Twin, male: Qabil, female: Iklima
b. Second Twin, male: Habil, female: Labuda
c. Syits.

lots the bible does not say how many
first 2 cain and able then 25 Adam lay with his wife again, and she gave birth to a son and named him Seth but they lives 100s of years and had many more children it says latter
like abraham after serah died he had more wives children and concubines but isaac was the one God blessed

the correct answer is 11. I cant tell you all the names but 11. I was in the Holy Land 3 years ago and a Jewish man and woman showed me around and translated for me and some friends. They showed me in the bible but of corse it was in Hebrew.
