Most have read when Cain talked with Abel and in the field killed him.
Gen.4:8 And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.
God then cursed and drove Cain out, and Cain said.
Gen.4:14 Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me.
WHO IS CAIN WORRIED ABOUT?
Gen.4:17 And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch.
WHERE DID CAIN FIND A WIFE?
The answer is in the Hebrew text of (Gen.1:26 and Gen.2:7).

MANKIND
Gen.1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
The word “man” (Gen.1:26) in the Hebrew text looks like this ( אדם ), with no article means “MANKIND”, transliterated is (adam).

ADHAM
Gen.2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
The word “man” (Gen.2:7) in the Hebrew text looks like this ……………… ( את־האדם ), with article and particle means “THIS SAME MAN ADHAM”, transliterated is (eth-Ha adham).

Answer 1

It is written that Cain went to a trading town east of Eden called Nod and there he took a wife. She was part of what is called the eighth day creation. Man (the races) was created on the 6th day according to genesis. On the 7th day it is written god did nothing. After that 7th day he created Haadam , Meaning THE man adam. Adam and eve were the beginning of the Jewish race. The last race to be created. There is some speculation that Cain's wife was named Lilith.
And if you know anything about this supposed Lilith you may think it was a marriage made in heaven. Check it out.

Answer 2

Genesis 4:17 says, "Cain lay with his wife, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Enoch." Who was his wife? It is implied in the biblical text that Cain married one of his sisters. Several facts lead us to this conclusion.
First, it is clear that Adam and Eve had a number of children. Genesis 5:4 says, "After Seth was born, Adam lived 800 years and had other sons and daughters." Since Adam and Eve were the first man and woman, and since God had commanded them (and their descendants) to be fruitful and multiply (Genesis 1:28), it seems reasonable to conclude that Cain married one of his many sisters. It is also possible that he married a niece or even a grandniece.
One must keep in mind that in the early years of the human race there were no genetic defects that had yet developed as a result of the fall of man. By the time of Abraham, God had not yet declared this kind of marriage to be contrary to His will (see Genesis 20:12). Laws governing incest apparently did not become enacted until the time of Moses (Lev 18:7-17; 20:11,12,14,17,20,21). Hence, there was no prohibition regarding marrying a sister (or niece or grandniece) in the days of Cain.

Answer 3

cains wife was found in the land of Nod. i think Nod is part of africa, possibly where Sumaria is found today. but i could not say for sure. Sumaria could be where Ham and egyptus first homesteaded. but the oldest homestead might not even be found archeologically. because it would be where Adam and eve lived, not an entire city. then again the book of urantia says there were four races already on the planet when Adam and Eve arrived. the facts that i have been taught are that Eve had 56 children. and the book of mormon (in the pearl of great price) says that their children loved satan more than God. as for your slam against creation. just one witness, or one prophet of God, is enough testimony to disprove that evolution ever happened. in the pearl of great price Abraham was a witness of the creation.

Answer 4

On the money again!!!

Cain went off, and found a wife out in the wilderness.....

So there must of been other folks out there...not just in the Garden of Eden.

Another note, there were no mention of any daughters born up to this point from Adam & Eve....I beleive, so there was no sister for Cain to take as a wife....

Answer 5

assuming the myth were actually plausible, Cain's conversation with the Big Guy (at a time when his brother is dead, so he, mom and dad are the only people introduced as of yet) makes it clear that Cain is concenred about other people (when they see him, hence god's mark on him); therefore there were other people, too.

Thus one can interpret Genesis as an origin tale for the Hebrews, NOT for humanity as a whole.
