Genesis 4:1 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Adam and Eve had many sons and daughters, Genesis 5:4. But Cain and Abel seem to have been the two eldest. Cain signifies possession; for Eve when she bare him said with joy and thankfulness, and great expectation, I have gotten a man from the Lord.

Genesis 4:1

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