Genesis 4

Genesis 4

The tragic consequences of sin spread as Cain and Abel, Adam and Eve’s first sons, bring offerings to God. God accepts Abel’s offering but rejects Cain’s, leading Cain to grow jealous and murder his brother—the first act of homicide. God curses Cain, making him a restless wanderer, but places a mark on him for protection. This chapter also traces Cain’s descendants, highlighting the development of civilization, music, and tools, and ends by noting that Adam and Eve had another son, Seth, through whom a righteous lineage begins.
