Who Did Cain In The Bible Marry? by layla129(f): 11:45am On Jun 12, 2016
when Adam and Eve gave birth to Cain and Abel, there were only four people on earth( Adam, Eve, Cain and Abel). Bible said that Cain killed Abel and was cursed by God, leaving only three people on earth( Adam, Eve and Cain). According to the Bible, Cain travelled to a town called Nod, married and gave birth to children with her. My question is, which other woman did Cain marry?
Please, i really need your answers .

For reference check the book of Genesis 4:1-17

This is one of the loopholes those who invented the Judeo-christian God forgot to cover up. If he married another person from another land, why were those people not put in the garden of Eden? why do they and their descendant bear the same curse as Adam and Eve if he married his sister, would that mean that God used incense to populate the world and later discover that incense was bad the story can't be taken seriously.

interesting... maybe this explanation could throw more light in answering your question.

CAIN’S WIFE
Genesis 4:17

An “old chestnut” of a question, and one which agnostics and hecklers are fond of hurling at defenders of the authority of the Bible is, “Where did Cain get his wife?” To many who are not enemies of the Faith, such a question may cause an unnecessary anxiety. As Adam and Eve were the first human pair on earth, and by natural generation had three sons who are named—Cain, Abel, Seth—and there is no mention of any named daughters—it does seem as if there is a problem in knowing where the female came from whom Cain made his wife. In the genealogy of Adam, as the natural head of the human race, we are told that “Adam begat sons and daughters” (Genesis 5:4). How many sons there were, apart from the three named ones, and how many daughters were born to Eve we are not told. Thus, because they lived long before the Sinaitic Laws were given, there was no moral difficulty involved in the marriage of near relatives. With Cain, the course was obviously a necessary one as it was with his brothers—they married their sisters. As we have already seen, Abraham married his own half-sister, Sarah.


After the birth of Seth, Adam lived for another 800 years, and died at the age of 930. When Eve died we are not told, but if she lived as long as her husband, and she was able to continue procreation through the centuries, then the family of earth’s first pair must have been large indeed. The register of births and deaths in Genesis 5 is an instructive record of remarkable longevity. The name of the earliest patriarchs are given, and the long years each of them lived upon the earth. If you add together the years that each one lived, you will find that their united lives cover a long period indeed. Enoch lived for the shortest period, 365 years—a year for every day of our normal year; while Methuselah lived the longest period of any known man, namely 969 years—31 years short of a millennium. Adam lived for over one hundred years after the birth of Methuselah, and the latter would have been over 300 years old when his grandson, Noah, was born. There is little room for doubt that Enoch, the seventh from Adam, had the privilege of conversing with earth’s first man. By the end of the first two millenniums the population of the earth through direct intermarriage must have been enormous.


As there may have been a lapse of many, many years before Cain’s marriage, during such a period—130 years between the birth of Cain and Seth, the substitute for slain Abel—some of the unnamed sons and daughters of Adam and Eve were likely born. As there were no other humans on earth apart from their descendants, Cain, attracted to one of his sisters, took her to wife. Whoever the sister was who chose to go into banishment with her branded brother, she deserves credit for her willingness to share Cain’s curse and wanderings. It is significant that they called their first child Enoch, which means “dedicated,” and may suggest a change in Cain’s character. The word is akin to “train” as found in the phrase, “Train up a child” (Proverbs 22:6), and is also used in the dedication of a new house (Deuteronomy 20:5). Cain called the city he built after the name of his son “Enoch,” or “dedicated,” and, as Ellicott

So the method he used to populate the world is a method he later grew to hate If God was going to hate incest later on, he could have found another way to populate the earth to show us how much he hates it. Now u just showed ur fellow believers that God is not sure if he hates incest or not.

You asked to understand how cain married in Nod? I am going to tell you what i have learned and you take it and see if between you and God and the rest of his word to see if its right. Adam and Eve was not the first people the days listed before mentioned certain people and when adam and eve was created they was for a certain reason also they would be the bloodline to bring in baby Jesus. Now i was about to mention the serpent and I want you to not think a literal snake I can call my neighbor a snake or a bear or a fox ect.. its symbolic its a discription that you can relate to. Tree of knowledge is Christ, Tree of good and evil is satan. He has many names which all give you a understanding of him and his roles. He (satan) didn't come to the people before adam and eve why? because he has a plan also he wanted to mess up the pure seedline that would bring in the Christ child. So he tempted Eve and they both eve then adam had sex with him. That isn't hard to believe if you think for a moment there is nothing new under the sun. Many stories mention a situation where they want the men of the house not the woman, thats one of satans mo's method of operation. So with Eve now going to have satans and Adams child the beginning of him really getting a foothold here has began. satan goes to nod and finds a wife and he starts his system remember his father is the prince (ruler) of this earth so the system he believes is right (not Gods way) is what he does through the four hidden dynastys (which is what we see in almost every town and city) 1politics 2economy 3education 4 religion. Through those think about what all he can do, teach you, take from you,keep from you. and im getting off the subject of the garden if you take that info and then read what follows through the whole Bible and see if it seems right. Don't take my understanding of it see for yourself (test it) it will change you and you will have the key that opens the door.

People who wrote the bible where a bunch of confused people.
All these meanings people are trying to give to the apparent nonsense are all damage control. They are just trying to make sense out of obvious gibberish. They just keep interpreting bible to suit whatever form benefits their fantasy the most.

Adam Eve Cain and Abel.
The Bible said in Isaiah "Male and Female created he them"

Besides its not everything you need to know only whats in the Bible that God wants us to know for reasons best known to him in his infinite wisdom.

The Bible stated that "the secret things belongeth unto God, but the things that are revealed belong to us and our children"

If I may contribute, Islam taught that eve gives birth to Twins each time she gave birth a male child and a female, Cain married the twin of Abel and Abel married the twin of Cain and that was how life continued to evolve
