ACCORDING to the HOLY BIBLE, CAIN DID NOT MARRY HIS SISTER

I may just be feeding a troll here, and forgive me if I am. I, however, would not like to let the false statements here go unaddressed. I am a Young Earth Creationist who believes in a literal 6 day, 24-hours per day, creation. As such, I also accept the clear teachings of Genesis 1-11, unlike some today. Hopefully that will give you a point of reference for my following comments.Genesis 4:16 says that Cain went out and dwelt in the land of Nod. Nod means wandering. This passage is literally saying Cain went out into the land of wandering. A natural reading of Scripture would lead one to believe there was nothing here until Cain came. My opponent says that Cain took part in a wedding ceremony, which is not recorded in Scripture. He then goes on to say that traditionally there was a Priest and gathering of friends of familiy. Please note the word tradition in there. All traditions have a root. To assume our customs have not changed since creation is simply foolish. Why would Cain need to have a wedding? Was it even implied? Did you know other cultures have different customs as to what they do in weddings or if they even have weddings at all? You're building your defense off of a mountain of baseless assumptions. Also, please tell me where the Bible says Cain's wife was not from Eden. Genesis 4:16 says Cain knew his wife after he left. In other words they had sex. The presupposition here is that Cain was married beforehand. We don't know when Cain killed Abel, or if either of them were married. It seems evident from this passage that Cain was indeed married when he left Eden though. My opponent says that Cain's decendants did not build the city, then he goes on to say Cain's decendant (Enoch) helped him do it. The Bible does not say who helped in building this city.Next, my opponent goes on to come up with these random numbers claiming a city is "10,000 people," and Enoch was thus populated by 10,000 people. That is one of the most illogical statements I've ever heard. Please explain to me where this number comes from, how we know there are no exceptions, and how we know this was true 6,000 years ago when we have no reason to believe 10,000 people even existed.My opponent then goes on to say that all of Nod never met Adam or Eve, nor did Cain's wife. Citation please? I will explain later that this is simply untrue and ridiculous at best.Genesis 2:18-20 says that Adam was alone. It also says that Adam could not find any suitable for him. There was no-one with which he could mate. Genesis 2:21-24 describes God specifically designing Eve, uniquely and for the first time. This passage was the foundation for the teachings of Jesus and Paul in Matthew 19:4-6 and in Ephesians 5:31. Genesis 3:20 says that Adam named Eve what he did because she was the mother of all men. This means all of mankind came from Eve.The Bible does not indicate how many children Adam had nor when they had them. Cain and Abel are not necessarily the first children, nor are they necessarily the only ones who lived before Seth. Genesis 5:4-5 says that Adam had Seth when he was 130 years old. This passage also says that Adam had "many" sons and daughters. One thing to note is that Seth means replacement or compensation. This is seen in Genesis 4:25 when Adam says Seth was given to replace Abel. Genesis 5:4 tells us that Adam had daughters, but it does not tell us when this happened. Is it illogical to think that within the 130 years Adam was alive before Seth that he did not have more children that were unrecorded? We don't know when Cain killed Abel. They only had to be less than 130 years old. This is plenty of time to have more children before Seth is born! Read Matthew 11. Please note how it does not record any women, but only the birth of men. So even if you were to argue Seth was only son number 3 (Which there isn't really much indication of) that does not give us any clue as to how many daughters were there.This is not Scripture, but Jewish historian Josephus records that the tradition was that Adam had 33 sons and 23 daughters. If Adam lived to be 930 years old, this is not unreasonable - Especially when you consider God's mandate to be fruitful and multiply.Also, Genesis 4:17, as it addresses Cain 'knowing' his wife, it uses the Hebrew word (transliteration) ishash. This word means 'from man.' This is the same 'woman' term used in Genesis 2:23 when Adam says that Eve should be called woman because she comes from man. This rules out any theory of God specifically designing this individual women as he did Eve. This woman came from natural process.A couple more quick jabs as I wrap up. 1 Corinthians 15:45 says that Adam was the first man. Acts 17:26 says we all come from one blood, and that every nation that ever was or will be was of this one blood.In conclusion, there is no reason to assume Cain married anyone but his sister, and to say so is actually antibiblical. I challenge my opponent to take some time to think about his position and the implications this has on Theology, Soteriology, and even God's nature of Justice. I look forward to his response.
