No, there were others of Adam and Eve's children. Cain and Abel were just the ones talked about in the story.

On the 6th day, God made man. Male and female, and made all the races. Adam in the Hebrew translation is "man". On the eight day he made "ha-adam", translated to "the man".Cain ended up somewhere around ancient Mongolia. The kenites are the sons of Cain.There was no apple or snake. You need to take the words back to the original. A good concordence that has greek and hebrew.

In the bible it states that Adam and Eve were created to protect Jesus's garden from the people in the city... Those People in the city?? so there were more than just Adam and Eve.

Adam and eve were not the only people on the earth.all the races were made on the 6th day.Genesis chapter 1 verses 26-31 make it clear.Adam and eve were created on the 8th day.And Cain is not Adams son.Genesis chapter 3 verses 14,15 make that clear.Cains'children are KENITES!!!

Adam was lifted out of the mud and placed in a protected place in the center of the world and given an exalted priestly position to manifest God and His ways to the world. ==>> God lifted the Hebrews out of the mudpits of Egypt and placed them in a special land in the center of the world where they were protected by His Law and Covenant, and they were charged with manifesting God's ways to the world. Get it? When Adam decided to rewrite the Law & Covenant to suit his whims (the meaning of eating of the fruit of the tree of the DECIDING of Good & Evil) which was enshrined at the center of the Garden, God exiles him from the garden in the center of the world and forces him "East" away from God, and the land itself rebells against him, making living and ongoing struggle, yet God covers his shame, and Adam continues to worship God. ==>> When Israel systematically corrupts and ignores Gods Torah enshrined in the center of Israel, God exiles them East of the Promised Land. // Also, when David sins, he is subsequently (and frequently) made to flee Jerusalem, and made to spend the rest of his life fighting to hold on to his kingdom and his life. Yet God covers his shame, and David remains faithful to (and indeed in love with) God for the rest of his life. Get it? Adam has two sons: Abel is true in the Faith but Cain is not, and he murders Abel, for which he is made a vagabond whose posterity is lost. God gives Adam Seth as a replacement and even when the Flood comes, He preserves Seth's righteous lineage from destruction. They settle in Babel for too long, and when the king and his people attempts to exalt themselves as God, God frustrates and confuses them, and causes them to disperse throughout the world to carry on their mission. Finally, God calls and leads the most precious remnant (Abraham) to the Promised Land where he builds an altar to God. ==>> Israel splits into two kingdoms. The northern and greater kingdom corrupts its worship, and increasingly corrupts its smaller brother kingdom to the South, for which the northern kingdom is driven from the land and into no one knows where -- effectively oblivion. Despite the corruption of the southern kingdom, God raises up a new righteous king and righteous lineage which perseveres in the midst of increasing corruption. When God destroys the southern kingdom too, he preserves the righteous remnant. They are settled in Babylon, where they stay a little too long. When the King exalts himself as God, he is driven mad and his kingdom given over to a polyglot empire, which allows the Jews to move out and settle in every city in the world. Finally, a special priestly remnant returns to Jerusalem and the Promised Land and rebuilds the Temple. I could also go on about Absalom, Adonijah, and Solomon (Cain, an unrighteous version of Able, and Seth) but I think you get the point. The first 11 chapters of Genesis are poetic (prophetic?) foreshadowing of both the grand history of Israel, and also the many later personal stories that serve to restate the major themes (in various inversions) in microcosm. Even more amazingly, the first Chapter and beginning of the 2nd, serve as an outline in allegory for the rest of Genesis.

He had brothers and sisters. Genesis 5:4 "And the days of Adam after his fathering Seth came to be eight hundred years. Meanwhile he became father to sons and daughters" If you read Chapter 5, you will notice that they usually only mention the firstborn son, even if the first child was a girl, as far as genealogies go. Compare Joseph's genealogy at Matthew 1:1-17 or Mary's an Luke 3:23-38 where it just gives the name of Mary's husband Joseph as the parent (being the son, as the opinion was, of Joseph"). As far as Jacobs children, the Bible talks usually just about his twelve sons. Gen 35:22 If I am not mistaken, in line with what someone else said, sometimes there is only mention of the ones that are being spoken about in a significant way, especially so with women in Genealogies. I am thinking that Dinah is only mentioned because of what happened with the daughters of the land, which would have been bad associations leading to the problem with Shechem. Genesis 34 Again, if I am not mistaken, Dinah is the only daughter mentioned by name, though it appears that he had other daughters. (Gen 46:7,15)

All I know for sure, is the written record. If I killed my brother, I would not assume that the rest of my family would be okay with it, especially if he had a righteous and kind disposition and I had a history of anger and jealosy. They would have been related to him also. What is your take take on my questions? 1) When would you suppose the first murder was? 2)Would you think that that could also be the first time that someone felt guilty for murdering someone, hence the first time someone was worried about vengence? 3) Is it murder when a State puts to death a convicted murderer? 4) Do you believe that in our time, sometimes people kill family members and might be afraid that another family member might be hurt by it and want revenge and if so, when would that fear have started? After the first murder, the tenth murder, the hundredth murder? You nor I neither one has experience with the culture of people who had committed or witnessed the first murder, so I would not think that I was presuming any more than you are. I was originally trying to answer the question that antigonerising asked. Sorry about not answering the question about who he would have married. Probably one of his sisters or his nieces. 5)I am not smartest person and would not want to be judgemental, but are you trying to prove that the Bible is not inspired? I meant to post this comment in response to the comment by hasntbeen. I keep hitting the wrong button. Sorry.
