Who Did Cain (adam & Eve Offspring) Marry? by richard870(m): 7:20am On Jul 22, 2015
The holy bible tells us that Adam and Eve were the human beings made by God (without sex)
Now, my questions; Who did Cain (their first child) marry , could it be incest was allowed by or is something missing?
I have done a lot of thinking but couldn't come to a logical sense behind what could have happened

What do you guys think?

He was an hermaphrodite. In fact, he was the first hermaphrodite in history.

He fvcked himself and gave birth to some children.
Those children also fvcked each other and gave birth to more.

Answer: Indeed, Cain and Abel 1 had to marry their sisters, considering that there were no other women around. King David writes, 2 "The world was built with kindness." Our sages explain that this verse is referring to G‑d's kindness in allowing Adam and Eve's children to marry their own sisters in order to populate the species. 3 The Midrash tells us that Cain was born with a twin sister and Abel was born with two sisters. 4 They each married the sister who was born with them. According to one opinion, it was actually a quarrel over who would get to marry the third sister that led to Cain slaying Abel. 5 The third generations of humans had no need for this loophole, because marriage between first cousins is not considered incest according to Torah law. So why are these daughters not mentioned in the Torah? They are. Later in Genesis 6 we are told, "And the days of Adam after he fathered Seth were eight hundred years, and he fathered sons and daughters"—though we are not informed of their identities. The Torah only records the names of those who were leaders of note, those who played a role in the biblical narrative, or the men who formed the chain of lineage connecting Adam to Noah (and later Noah to Abraham). FOOTNOTES 1. Adam's third son, Seth, possibly married one of his nieces (uncle-niece marriage is not forbidden according to Torah law. 2. Psalms 89:3. 3. Cited in Rashi's commentary on Leviticus 20:17. There Rashi explains that this is the reason why the Torah employs the unusual term "chesed, " which is usually translated as kindness, to describe the prohibition against brother-sister incest. 4. Genesis Rabbah 22:2. 5. Ibid. 7. Cain claimed the right to this sister because he was the firstborn. Abel maintained that he should marry her because she was his triplet.

When you do an in depth study of Christianity and all religions in general and their vague tenets, you wonder how they manage to keep fellow humans with a functioning brain under their followership.

What's gross about that? Would someone with 'infinite mercies' condemn his creations to eternal torment?

You that's not even 1/0000000000th of His mercies, will you allow your child to burn in fire just for lying?

Keep on deceiving yourself. What scope of human comprehension are you talking about?

Be honest with yourself and stop trying to hide from the truth.

One doesn't claim to be something then go ahead to do the opposite of that thing.

Adam and Eve had other sons and daughters. Gen 5:5

Occams Razor suggests that he married one of his sisters.

But of course, that was permissible then because they were the only people on earth. Later in Leviticus 18, God abolished incest of any kind.

At least, by then the gene pool had watered down. There were about 3 million people to choose from. smiley

You know you can't lie to a psychic.....

Humans have an innate allure for 'craziness', and this trait is more expressed in you females.

Anyway, let me just take your word for it.
