DAY 4 OF 50

GENESIS 4

CAIN + ABEL GIVE OFFERINGS TO GOD

Adam and Eve have two sons, first Cain and then Abel. Cain works in the fields and Abel is a shepherd. Cain gives God an offering of the fruit he has grown and Abel gives an offering of his firstborn lamb. God is more pleased with Abel's offering, and Cain is jealous, so Cain murders Abel.

God punishes Cain by sending him away as a wanderer in the land and making it impossible for him to grow crops. However, God still watches over Cain, keeping him safe from harm.

Adam and Eve have another son named Seth, and Seth has a son named Enosh. Cain also has a son whom he names Enoch.

In this chapter, the consequences of sin and separation from God become apparent through Eve experiencing pain in childbirth and Cain murdering Abel.

STUDY QUESTIONS

Why do you think God was more pleased with Abel’s offering than Cain’s?
