Hello everyone. Hope you are having a good time on read.cash platform. I’m starting a series of teaching on some common questions about some things writing in the Bible, how it came to be, what transpired the verse to be written and a good example of this questions I’m talking about is what I’ll be briefly discussing today. CAIN’S WIFE.
I’m sure many of us would be thinking where Cain got his wife from because the bible didn’t mention any other people living on earth or did it mention that God created any other human apart from Adam and is help mate who later turned to be his wife Eve.
(Please note, this is a series of teaching. The holy spirit might give you a better understanding on the topic(s)).
Genesis 4v17 told us that “And Cain knew is wife…” now the question is where did Cain found his wife when there was no other creature on earth?
Well, according to theology, Cain and Abel his brother were not born as single child. They were both twins. Cain twin sister was named LULUWA because she was beautiful than her mother Eve. And Abel twin sister was named AKLIA (meaning not stated).
As they both (Cain and Abel) were coming of Age, their parents decided on whom they would marry. As agreed, between Adam and Eve since there is no other human on earth, they decided to swap their sisters for them to take as wives meaning Cain will marry Aklia Abel twin sister while Abel marries Luluwa Cain’s twin sister. This decision made by the parents is what the devil later used to break the family of Adam. The plan between Adam and his wife never worked out because Abel was slain. After Abel’s death, Cain took his sister Luluwa to be his wife. The reason why Cain slaughtered his brother will be explained in detail in the next series. Cain didn’t find a wife from a different people but from his family.
So, hopefully I’ve answered one of your numerous questions you ask yourself when reading the Bible.
Keep reading the word. And don’t just read but do and live according to its teachings. Until next time, stay blessed.
