Who did Kane and Abel have kids with?
I'm sorry, I was under the impression that there had to be a woman involved. Does this explain the whole mess?......Incest. If you tell me that isn't supposed to be taken literaly, then what else in the good book isn't to be taken literaly...... The whole thing? I would like a list of things not to be taken literally.

Adam and Eve were created genetically pure. There would not have been any corruption in the gene pool for their offspring to reproduce with each other. As they lived long lives, you could assume that they were reproducing at least one set of offspring each from the age of say 20, until well past middle age (400 years).

That being said, it would have been possible for the offspring to marry cousins, neices or nephews.

For the record, incest was not classified as a sin until the law of Moses nearly 2000 years later.
