"And Cain went out from the presence of the Lord, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden." (v.18)
God asked Cain a direct question , "Where is Abel thy brother?" God as a Spirit was not asking a silly question with regards to his brother but rather where had he despatched his soul by doing violence to his body. Cain knew what he meant. Cain truthfully replied, "I know not." The anger and violence that Cain meted out to his sibling came from and set him in context of a land, which in the world of the flesh casts a certain light and gives every man a certain value.
The light from the sun moon and the stars provides light so day and night a man can distinguish. But is he wise for all that? Cain had no clue where he had sent Abel. Nicodemus represents his knowledge when he quizzed Jesus. John 3:10-13) The heavenly things and the earthly things denote two worlds of the Spirit and of flesh.
God allowed Moses to see the glory God which the Spirit qualifies as the back parts."and while my glory passes by I will put you in a cleft of the rock, and I will cover you with my hand until I have passed by./And I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen."(Ex.33:22-23) Glory of God which one may see from the world of the body is of quality different than one may see through the light which is his Son, the true Light. (Ps.36:9). So whosoever abiding in Christ Jesus sees light as God has willed. "Be ye holy for I am holy" is doable for those who trust in him. They trust in his grace, Abel offered a better offering which pleased God. "Without faith it is impossible to please God". God formed all hearts alike, Abel pleased God by following truth. (2 Cor.4:6) This knowledge is defined as the presence of God, it is word based and it is doable.
Everything else is the land of shadows and the land of Nod is a label to denote where alternate reality is the norm.
