They were married by the turkey that lived on the hill, as has been clearly demonstrated by the late Mr Edward Lear.

Even if Cain and Seth had to marry their sisters this was at the begging of time and I’m sure God mad it so any children would not have serious issues. Then as more people were born marriages started happening between cousins and further relatives. Look at our world today there are how many billions of people. Yet even today we have people who will marry as close as 1st cousin in some countrys. It’s Taboo here in the states but I think you can legal marry your 3rd cousin and beyond that. Noah and his family were the only people left after the flood thus if you believe the good book we are all distantly related.

Finally someone that has the same questions like I do.
Women were considered inferior by the churches thus were never mentioned. My opinion is as follows. There were more that 1 woman and man. I can not understand that the whole human race could only come from two people. If that is the case we are all family in some way or the other and we should all live in peace.

honestly, Adam and Eve had so lots greater toddlers than only Cain and Abel. one greater of their toddlers, Seth, is termed interior the bible. And that's made clean that many greater toddlers observed Seth. so some distance as any "incest" being a sin, back then God had given people basically one regulation: Be fruitful and multiply. That replace into all they had to do. all of the different rules, which includes incest, might basically be set by employing God lots, lots later.

Daughters were born unto Adam and Eve just as sons were. Just because daughters aren't mentioned in the Bible does not mean they had no girls. Therefore, sisters married their brothers until the next generation came along. Then nieces married cousins until the next generation came.
You should be able to figure out the rest of it.

Since the Bible says Adam and Eve had other sons and daughters...then the clear implication is that Cain and Abel married their sisters.
This cannot be used as a valid criticism of the Bible...but Bible bashers do it anyway.

No where in the Bible does it say that there were NOT people elsewhere. In fact, when Cain was sent east of Eden by God after the murder of Abel, Cain expressed concern that someone would kill him. God marked Cain so that anyone who came across him would know not to kill him....
That indicates to me that there were others around.

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.

Able was killed by Cain.
The Bible does not tell us who he married, but he is the son that the ungodly line comes from.
Adam & Eve had another son named Seth.
Seth is the son that the godly line comes from, but again the Bible does not tell us who he married.

Clearly fundamentalists have absolutely NO CLUE about the inherent risks of inbreeding..or maybe they do - from first hand experience?
Silly, silly people.
