Who is Cain talking about, when nobody else is supposed to exist?

4:17. Cain made love to his wife, and Enoch was born.

4:25. Adam and Eve made love, and Seth was born. (No daughters yet).

Meanwhile, Cain has already made love to his wife, before Seth was born, and......

5:4. ...[text shortened]... rs.

So, Cain made love to his wife, before any sisters were born.

Where did she come from?
Are you sure you are not making a possible faulty assumption?

I gave you scripture and my reasons for my stance. Nothing you shared addresses those points, so just read them again. I am not going to repeat my position.

I have listed the verses in chronological order. There were NO daughters born to Adam and Eve until after Cain had a wife.

Your theory supposes that daughters were born, but not mentioned in the Bible. Why?

Why are you 'adding' something that is clearly not there? Because then, you can 'just add' anything else to the Bible, that 'fits' any story you want.

Do you think each ans every birth was recorded?

Are you also going to say, like KellyJay did, that daughters were there? But mysteriously left out of the Bible?

Are you absolutely sure every baby given birth by Eve was recorded in the Bible.

You would think that the first few humans on earth would be relevant enough to write down.

Both you and KellyJay refuse to admit to this dilemma, and are conveniently adding daughters, when none are mentioned.

You both can seemingly add things to the Bible to make this story 'work'.

How many individual female births were recorded? You'd think the first baby girl would be important enough to record.

The Bible mentions daughters in Genesis 5:4. Are you stating that the writer deliberately left out other previous daughters? Knowing full well that this could pose a problem for Cain's wife, you would think those females would be mentioned in a reasonable timeline. But they were not mentioned.

Did it mention the birth of any girls or the fact some girls were born?

Uhhh....yes, in 5:4, well after Cain had a wife. Again, I have listed the verses, in order. You can find them on page 8.

Your thread doesn't work, because Cain and Abel were mentioned in previous chapters of Genesis. What was not mentioned, was a daughter from Adam and Eve, born close enough to Cain, to be his wife in Nod.

You need to cease fabricating a daughter from Adam and Eve, until well after Cain was married.

My thread doesn't work?

"This is the written account of Adam’s family line."


Does this sound like a continuation of Chapter 4 or a parallel account?

A parallel account?

Don't you think you are reaching pretty far to give Adam and Eve a daughter, when one wasn't mentioned?
