Cain's Wife

I've read some weird stuff on the internet, I've watched videos people have posted, I've listened to radio shows... and its now that I realize no one on the planet actually has read the Bible. Okay, you caught me... I've read it.

Genesis (1:26) reads, "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth."

Genesis (1:27) reads, "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them."

Genesis (1:28) reads, "And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth."

If you know your Bible at all, you'll realize that this happens on the 6th day of creation.

Now someone please point to the part that says these people where Adam and Eve. You can't, because it doesn't say that. These are the people that existed on the Earth long before the creation of Adam and Eve. These are people who existed and where blessed by God, but according to the Bible had no soul.

Not until we get to Genesis (2:7) did God create a man that he would place into the garden of Eden of which we would learn in Genesis (2:19) that the man he places into the Garden of Eden is named, "Adam". Adam is the first human to have a soul. In Genesis (2:22) God would actually create the first woman with a soul, "Eve".

So to make the point, by the time Cain came to exist, there was a whole world full of people for him to find his wife.
