GENESIS 4

KING JAMES VERSION (KJV)

STRONG'S CONCORDANCE

WORDS OF GOD IN RED

Chapter Summary

Adam and Eve conceive and give birth to Cain and then Abel. Cain became a crop farmer while Abel was a shepherd. As offerings to God, Cain brought fruits he harvested while Abel offered his first-born sheep of the season. God respected Abel's offerings but did not respect Cain's causing Cain to become angry. Cain slays Abel in the field. When God inquires about Abel, Cain replies: "I know not: Am I my brother's keeper?" (Gen 4:9) God then curses Cain to become a fugitive while also promising to protect him from harm by others. And so Cain moves to the land of Nod where he raises a family which multiplies. Adam and Even conceive another son named Seth "instead of Abel, whom Cain slew" (Gen 4:25) and Seth himself has a son named Enos. "Then began men to call upon the name of the LORD." (Gen 4:26)
