Did Adam and Eve really have children before Cain and Abel?
Gen 1:28
Talk about God telling Eve and Adam to be Fruitful "have children"
And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and muliply, and replenish the earth,................
IT doesn't name there children until they "ate of the tree Knowledge" then the generations .
It wasnt until Eve and Adam ate the forbidden FRUIT, did we get the Good and Evil
Abel and Cain
If not, then who did Cain take as a wife?
Who then had children in Gen. 1:28
Gen 6:1
And it came to pass, when men aeban to multiply on the face of the earth, and the daughters were born unto them...
What do you think?
I heard this also............
Hold on, at this time some people believe that when Lucifer got cast out of heaven so did 1/3 of his angel/demons and the bread with humans?

The Bible does not mention the children before the fall. And one of the curses was pain in labor for women.
Probably Cain took a sister as his wife- the blood was not tainted with generations of births yet.
1/3 of his demons and minions were cast out with him. The bread? I have never heard of that.
Read Wendy Alec's- the fall of Lucifer- while not a real account of what happened- it is a good book.

All the families of the earth originated with Adam and Eve. Therefore, Cain's wife was either a sister, niece, or great niece. While laws against marriages between close relatives would later be put in place, such marriages were necessary in the early years of man's existence.
Some read the Genesis account and are left with the impression that Cain, Abel, and Seth were the only children Adam and Eve had, but Genesis 5:4 says plainly that Adam "had sons and daughters." No doubt, Cain's wife was one of Adam's daughters or granddaughters.
Re 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
this happened long before adam and eve

Ok, Adam and Eve had children, not before Cain and Abel, but after. Those brothers are the oldest, and yes, Adam and Eve had other sons and daughters, and one of their daughters married with Cain. He take his sister as a wife, and have children.
As Lucifer, yes, he did 1/3 of the angel/legion, and that's why all the things, in the earth and the heaven are bad, until Jesus came to earth, he proves that the man can be faithful to God, and He promise to punish the evil. I think you should study all those things in your church, it's very interesting

NO-the scriptures do not say anything about Adam and Eve having children BEFORE Cain and Abel-but they had others afterwards. As some have surmised,Cain married one of his sisters and.as repugnant as it is to us,there was no law against it at that time,and actually it would have been absolutely necessary for Adam and Eve's children to intermarry,otherwise they would have had no progeny,and we,as well as the entire human race would never have existed!
As to Lucifer,he and 1/3 of the "host of heaven" WERE cast out of heaven(our heavenly Father's kingdom)for rebellion against GOD,but this occurred previous to the events in the
Garden of Eden.

Cain was the firstborn and Abel the second, by Christian tradition.
Cain's wife would have been a niece several times removed.
Some of the fallen angels did interbreed with humans, giving rise to "giants." The Israelites were later commanded to kill the descendants of the fallen angels, according to fundies -- these were people living in the Promised Land.

He said be fruitful and multiply , it doesn't say that they did in that verse . That was what He told them to do from that point on . Then they had Cain an Abel

Probably had some girls, but I think cain and able were the first boys.
There might have been some demon people outside of the garden that mixed up with adam and eves kids, who knows.
