Congratulations, you are the nine millionth person to ask this question.
Cane married one of his female relatives. Do some research on the degradation of the genetic information.

Many things can happen after "the Fall", Adam and Eve were driven out of the Garden of Eden, right? Then, the Cain and Abel scene.
Just take a look today. My paternal aunt have 10 kids, and she's not yet 50. How much more Adam, who died at the age of 930 years old?

Beside Abel and Cain, Adam and Eve had other female children as we know that women very rare to mentioned in the bible.
And Cain married his sister.

Lad, for gosh sake, do not stir up the Fundies with questions they cannot answer. Simply put, Adam, Eve, the talking snake, Cain, Abel, Seth, et al. did not exist. They are fiction, and really rather silly fiction. Man was made of a handful of dirt and Ave came into the world from one of the man's ribs. Makes me wanna rush back to the talking snake for a taste of reality. Oy.

This is really an old issue with me. Either Cain married one of his sisters, or there were other people around at that time.
What seems to get many people confused is the idea that God created 'man' when the scriptures actually say that He created 'Adam'. He breathed life into Adam. And the line of Adam was the one that God counted. There could have been millions of people ( or not) around then, we don't know. But to assume that God created Adam and Adam was the only person around could be correct, but he doesn't have to have been.

Abel is killed by the cane?You mean Adam and Eve whipped him so hard with a cane and therefore he died?
From your question, you said Abel died and went to a town to get married. How does he do that? Read your bible carefully.
(I always thought it was Abel and Cain)
:P.

I really don't know, the Bible never says. But, I think there was a world outside the Garden of Eden, as that's where Adam and Eve were banished, so it makes sense there was another place for Cane to go, right?

Cain is afraid of being made a wanderer for his crime. He is worried others will find him and kill him. Clearly, others had to have been around besides his parents. I could go into detail about early humans, but that is not in the story. Suffice to say, Adam and Eve were the first humans God was concerned about, not the first bipeds necessarily.

Yes.
That was after or in the year 130, Adam was age 130, who knows what the population may have been.
At year 2298, Jacob age 130 Gen.47:9.11; at Rameses Egypt, Gen.46:27; 70
family members and these are the twelve tribes of Israel and they are all
parents, and some are grandparents.

The Bible says nothing about any town.
'
Cain married one of his sisters...a daughter of Adam and Eve.
Almighty God was populating the earth. The problems of inbreeding had not started then.
