Genesis 4:1 - Arno Geneva Study Bible

Bible Comments

And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she (a) conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man (b) from the LORD.

(a) Man's nature, the estate of marriage, and God's blessing were not utterly abolished through sin, but the quality or condition of it was changed.

(b) That is, according to the Lord's promise, as some read (Genesis 3:15), "To the Lord" rejoicing for the son she had born, whom she would offer to the Lord as the first fruits of her birth.
