▪ Where did Cain get his wife? (Genesis 4:17)

One might think that after the murder of Abel, only his guilty brother Cain and their parents, Adam and Eve, were left on the earth. However, Adam and Eve had a large family. According to Genesis 5:3, 4, Adam had a son named Seth. The account adds: “The days of Adam after his fathering Seth came to be eight hundred years. Meanwhile he became father to sons and daughters.” So Cain married his sister or perhaps one of his nieces. Since mankind was then so close to human perfection, such a marriage evidently did not pose the health risks that may imperil the offspring of such a union today.

Genesis 5:4 tells us that Adam and Eve "begat sons and daughters." Adam and Eve did have many children.

Therefore, brothers must have married sisters at the beginning. Remember that the law against close intermarriage was not given until the time of Moses—e.g. "none of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him" (Leviticus 18:6). There was nothing wrong with brother and sister marriages, originally. If you think about it, that is the only way to populate the world, starting with only one pair. Notice that Abraham married his half sister with no condemnation from God, even though this was later forbidden.

Also, as Adam and Eve were created perfect, their genes would have been perfect. As the curse God placed upon creation started to operate only after they sinned, their descendants would not have had many mistakes in their genes. These mistakes (harmful mutations) add up only after a long period of time.

So brothers and sisters (Adam and Eve's children) could have married and not had the problems of deformities in their offspring as might well happen today, if such close relatives married and had children. This is because today humans have lots of mistakes—because of the curse—in their genes. This may cause problems when matching pairs are inherited from both parents, as is much more likely with close intermarriage.

If you read past the part about Cain slaying his brother Abel, you'll find that there were people in the land of Nod where Cain went to dwell after the murder.

Also a careful examination of the first 2 chapters of Genesis show that on the 6th day (described as generations in chapter 2) of creation, God created humans. Then on the 7th day/generation, he rested. It was after that, he planted the Garden of Eden and placed Adam and Eve in the garden.

These two passages show clearly that there were other people on the earth besides just Adam and Eve and their children at the time.

I think that Adam just happened to be the one that God chose to be his first Prophet, to give the animals their names (chapter 2:19-20), and to teach his word. Then it was Adam's responsibility to teach everyone else.

Cain/Abel had to have been married to their sisters. There were no other options. Adam/Eve were created as fully mature people.We know this because they told to be fruitful and multiply.They couldn't do that if not sexually mature. In lots of countries, even today, women are married off upon reaching sexual maturity. Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!

Cain's wife would have been his sister, We are not told that Abel had a wife. Adam and Eve where created as man and women hence no childhood.

If you read Genesis, you'll discover various parts the preachers "gloss over" explaining that actually there were "other" people BEFORE "Adam & Eve"...
