Genesis
4 tells the story of Cain and Abel, the first two sons of Adam and Eve. Cain
was a farmer and Abel was a shepherd. They both made offerings to God, but God
accepted Abel's offering and rejected Cain's. This made Cain jealous, and he
murdered Abel in a fit of rage. God punished Cain by making him a restless
wanderer on the earth. Cain's descendants are listed, and the chapter also
mentions the birth of another son to Adam and Eve named Seth.
