Is Adam Really The First Man God Has Created?

Question

If That's True, Why Cain, After Killing Abel, His Brother, Got Afraid When God Chased Him Away From His Face, And Said: "...Whosoever Comes Across Me Will Kill Me". Whom Was He Afraid Of? His Father Or His Mother, For They Should Have Been Just The 3 Of Them. And God Had To Reassure Him Saying: "If Someone Kills Cain...". Now Which One. It Seems To Me That God And Cain Knew Exactely What They Were Talking About-A Person??! (Genesis 4:14,15).

Answer 1

Yes I believe that Adam was the first man God created. By the time Cain killed Able, Adam and Eve probably had lots of children by then. I'm sure they did, because the bible says that Eve is the mother of everyone living.

Answer 2

Yes Adam was the first. But you are makeing an assumption. Yes Cain was Adams first born son as Abel was his second but you assume these were the only children Adam had. Second you assume that Cain and Abel were young. Remember people lived a very long time. Why did God want Cain to live is a better question. Cain had denied God and chosen to follow satan. Why allow him to live? He killed or had killed others for much much less. Look at the children mauled by a she bear simpply for denying one of his prophets. Also why was he affraid of being killed. Think about what happened to him. He was cursed. He no longer looked so much like a Human as the Animal he was. There is alot involved in this question. Yes his family(parents and siblings) would probably let him live but how many generations were around by then. We don't have enought information. Good luck puzzling it out. But don't assume that God was not just and merciful.

Answer 3

God knew there would be other peopel on the earth. Keep in Mind at the time Adam Lived 900+ years. He made a lot of babies in those years even after his third son Seth. And someone did avenge Cain.

Genesis 4:23-24

23 And Lamech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah, Hear my voice; ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech: for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt.
24 If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy and sevenfold.

I believe Lamech killed Cain. Lemech is the Son of Enoch who is the Son of Cain.

I hope this helps:)

Answer 4

Dear Friend,

Who knows the real truth? Only gods knows my dear because I have lots of examples to prove it.

1.Till the release of the movie “The Jurassic Park“, no one knows that there existed dinosaur’s in this world long back but after the movie got released everyone started believing that too.

2.Till the release of the latest movie “ The Da Vinci Code” no one knows that Jesus has got a wife but that too people started believing after the movie got released.

3.Finally till “Titanic” got released, no one knows there was such a huge ship which never sinks was built in this world but that too was believed now.

Same like that I like your funny question - Is Adam Really The First Man God Has Created? That we have to ask to the almighty dear...He is the only one who knows the real truth behind that?...

Answer 5

I suppose we could ask where did cain get his wife from?
Well cain most likely married his sister or second cousin.
And those people cain was afraid of were his relatives.

Answer 6

I believe Cain is referring to fallen angels. My own personal theory.

Answer 7

the bible states meanwhile Adam and eve had more children

"And Adam lived on for a hundred and thirty years. Then he became father to a son in his likeness, in his image, and called his name Seth. 4 And the days of Adam after his fathering Seth came to be eight hundred years. Meanwhile he became father to sons and daughters. 5 So all the days of Adam that he lived amounted to nine hundred and thirty years and he died."

the bible doesn't contain every detail of every birth from Adam and eve but tells us relevant details pertaining to our future and Jesus linage
