Genesis chapters 3 and 4 present the following information: (1) Eve was “the mother of everyone living.” (2) Time elapsed between the birth of Cain and his offering the sacrifice that was rejected by God. (3) Following his banishment to become “a wanderer and a fugitive,” Cain worried that ‘anyone finding him’ might try to kill him. (4) God set up a sign to protect Cain, indicating that either his siblings or other relatives might try to kill him. (5) “Afterward,” Cain had intercourse with his wife in “the land of Fugitiveness.”​—Genesis 3:20; 4:3, 12, 14-17.

From the above, we can rightly conclude that Cain’s wife was a descendant of Eve born on an unknown date. Genesis 5:4 acknowledges that during his 930 years of life, Adam “became father to sons and daughters.” Of course, the Bible does not specify that Cain’s wife was Eve’s daughter. Indeed, the fact that she is mentioned after Cain’s banishment indicates that enough time had passed that she could even have been one of Adam and Eve’s granddaughters. Hence, The Amplified Old Testament describes Cain’s wife simply as “one of Adam’s offspring.”

Nineteenth-century Bible commentator Adam Clarke speculated that God’s establishing a sign as a result of Cain’s fear came about because several generations of Adam’s descendants already existed​—enough “to found several villages.”

That Cain married his sister or a later female descendant of Adam through the marriage of any of Adam’s sons or daughters is viewed by some societies today as unthinkable. This is usually because of societal taboos or fear of genetic defects. Nevertheless, F. LaGard Smith comments in The Narrated Bible in Chronological Order: “It is altogether likely that these first brothers and sisters enter into marriages with each other, despite the sense of inappropriateness which would be felt should that occur in following generations.” Also, it is noteworthy that it was not until Moses received God’s laws for the nation of Israel in 1513 B.C.E. that intercourse between such close relatives was specifically forbidden.​—Leviticus 18:9, 17, 24.

Are you really asking to KNOW or just to find a contradiction. This question has been answered too many times on nairaland yet people who just want to find errors keep asking...


NEXT TIME READ THE BIBLE TO UNDERSTAND.... this is a question based on semantics.

GENESIS 4:16-17 AMPLIFIED VERSION
16 So Cain went away from the [manifested] presence of the Lord, and lived in the land of Nod [wandering in exile], east of Eden.

17 Cain knew his [g]wife [one of Adam’s descendants] and she conceived and gave birth to Enoch;

The Creation of Adam and Eve did NOT happen in this physical world that we "temporarily live" in!

It happened within The Boundary of The Spiritual and Animistic as well as Ethereal Spheres of Creation!

The first human beings who "incarnated" this Earth came through the most developed animal at that time (closely linked to Ape) - known as "the primeval man"!!

Eternal Gratitude to GOD ALMIGHTY for giving us the greatest opportunity to have life!

Let's strive very hard to obey HIS Will Perfectly so that we can all earn Eternal Life!! Amen!!

Shalom!

Cain married his sister. It's not only the bible that was written those days so therefore u can't get all information from the bible. Some gaps in the Bible are explained in ancient texts.
