Hi there.
In genesis 5:4 onwards the geneology of adam is given starting with seth. We know that abel was killed.
But why does the bible not include cain in the geneology of adam?

Since Cain was given his own genealogy [Genesis 4:17-24] perhaps he was not Adam's son. Have you ever noticed how similar the names in Cain's genealogy are to that of Adam's......as if it's a counterfeit copy?
Why does [1 John 3:12] seem to imply that Cain was of another....not Adam.
More than likely Cain was dead by the time of the flood.Cain was wiped out by the flood. -Not very relevant anymore.
I know that cain has his own geneology. What im asking is why is he not mentioned together with adams geneoloy. Noah's geneology tells us what happened to each of his sons and their geneology. Not so with adam. Adams geneology skips his son cain.
For example when the bible gives the geneology of naoh..genesis 10:29...it lists those of all three his sons together.

What difference does it make to me? Oh i dont know...what difference does it make to me whether you answer my questions or not. It makes no difference, but it sure is good to talk about stuff. Unless your 'what difference does it make' ...means 'leave it alone'.
Cains is not mentioned in adams geneology because cain was cursed. He himself, as a person, was cursed.
When adam and eve sinned the ground was cursed not they themselves. Maybe that has something to do with it.
I dont think that this will revolutionize the world, its only a post on a forum in the darkest recesses of the internet. Cama see camma sa.

Did Adam have only one child that was cursed?
Did Adam and Eve sin? What was the result?
Genesis 3
16Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.
17And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;
18Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field; 19In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.
Don't you have a point you're trying to make? What is it? I'm interested.

S-Word. Yes enoch was a great man....but what does that have to do with cain?
Cain's natural father was adam, his spiritual father was satan. He was a murderering spirit from the beginning.
Physical geneology means nothing....spiritual geneology does.
