Cain was the first child of Adam and Eve recorded in Scripture ( Genesis 4:1). His brothers, Abel ( Genesis 4:2) and Seth ( Genesis 4:25), were part of the first generation of children ever born on this earth.
Even though only these three males are mentioned by name, Adam and Eve had other children. In Genesis 5:4 a statement sums up the life of Adam and Eve—“And the days of Adam after he had fathered Seth were eight hundred years. And he fathered sons and daughters.” This does not say when they were born. Many could have been born in the 130 years ( Genesis 5:3) before Seth was born.
During their lives, Adam and Eve had a number of male and female children. The Jewish historian Josephus wrote that, “The number of Adam's children, as says the old tradition, was thirty-three sons and twenty-three daughters.”[11]
The Bible does not tell us how many children were born to Adam and Eve. However, considering their long life spans (Adam lived for 930 years— Genesis 5:5), it would seem reasonable to suggest there were many! Remember, They were commanded to “Be fruitful, and multiply” ( Genesis 1:28).
I glad to shair u my all problems which is push me away to my lord,
Pls keep in touch.
After the 1st Sabbath, YHVH formed a man from the dust of the ground. ( Genesis 2:7) His instructions were to tend the Garden.
Adam was not the first man, merely the first to live in the Garden. Cain married someone from those who were created. The Bible says he travelled to a place that already had a name.
Even more revealing is the revelation that God's 3 selves talk to each other. This is God talking among himself. What I am saying is, the self distinction of the Son talks to the self distinctions of the Father and the Holy Spirit. This is how God makes his dicisions. We shouldn't be suprised at this because it is much the same way we talk things over within ourselves.
We see this taking place in Gethsemane when Jesus said to the Father, "My Father! If it is possible, let this cup of suffering be taken away from me." We don't hear what the Father is saying because the Father does not speak so that we can hear him. Jesus said that we have never heard his voice, and we never will. In other words, all the words we will ever hear from God will come from Jesus. This will be true even when we are in heaven.
What we are talking about is self identity or persona. God has 3 personas: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Jesus, then, is the persona or personality through whom God interacts with the human race. The Father is the personality by which God directs his affairs. And the Holy Spirit is the way God inspires us to believe in what is taking place.
The trouble is, we tend to think of God as a composite, made up of 3 separate parts combined into one. But this is not so. If it were, then at one time there wpuld have been 3 Gods. This is what the pagans believe.
The one God is 3 distinct persons or selves. This is what the Bible teaches and what we must believe. Let's say it this way, The same God who is Jesus, is the same God who is the Father and the Holy Spirit. This is how Jesus can say that if you have seen me you have seen the Father. In other words, they along with the Holy Spirit, are the same God.
But the bottom line is: Jesus is the way God deals with us, and always will be!
