Traditions of Atlantis
Schœbel, "in speaking of the men who were swallowed up by the Deluge, always describes them as 'Haadam,' 'Adamite humanity.'" The race of Cain lived and multiplied far away from the land of Seth; in other words, far from the land destroyed by the Deluge.
42) that "Cain travelled over many countries" before he came to the land of Nod.
The Bible does not tell us that the race of Cain perished in the Deluge.
"Cain went out from the presence of Jehovah;" he did not call on his name; the people that were destroyed were the "sons of Jehovah." All this indicates that large colonies had been sent out by the mother-land before it sunk in the sea.
The Deluge of the Bible
iv., 2); his son Cain was the builder of the first city (chap.
iv., 17); his descendant, Tubal-cain, was the first metallurgist (chap.
Pre-flood Nations and tribes
Description: Descendants of Cain, the son of Adam who killed his brother Abel.
The Bible briefly mentions the line of Cain in Genesis 4, focusing on individuals rather than a nation or tribe, but it represents the early human population before the flood.
Description: The sons of Adam and Eve, where Cain, the elder, kills Abel, leading to the early depiction of sin and punishment.
Description: A descendant of Cain, known for his boastful declaration in Genesis 4:23-24, which reflects the increasing violence and moral decline of the pre-flood world.
The origin of Nimrod
His fame as a warrior of the hunt before Yahweh contrasts with Cain, who "went out from the presence of Yahweh" (Genesis 4:16).
Nimrod appears to have gone down in the Hall of Shame when he may have been understood by the Genesis authors as a hero figure contrasting with Cain.
Cain was the first person to build a city but was also seen as a murderer.
Shepherds of humans
English: "Abel was a keeper of flocks, but Cain was a tiller of the ground."
Abel became Guardian of the flocks, but Cain (Qayin) became a cultivator of the earth.""
Example: Genesis 4:2 - "וַיְהִי־הֶבֶל רֹעֵה צֹאן וְקַיִן הָיָה עֹבֵד אֲדָמָה׃" ("Abel was a keeper of flocks [צֹאן], but Cain was a tiller of the ground.")
Mines in the Bible
Source: The Bible, Genesis 4:22: "And as for Zillah, she also bore Tubal-Cain, an instructor of every craftsman in bronze and iron."
Cain
Elder son of Adam and Eve, the first murderer and the first fratricide, from Hebrew Qayin, literally "created one," also "smith," from Semitic stem q-y-n "to form, to fashion." Figurative use for "murderer, fratricide" is from late 14c.
heretical sect who revered Cain, Judas, and other wicked characters in Scripture.
“And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD.
And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.”
The names Cain and Abel are Latin/English transliterations of the Greek names as found in the Septuagint (2,000 year old Greek translation of the Hebrew).
In Greek, Cain is Καιν (Kain) and Abel is Αβελ (Abel).
In Hebrew Cain is קין (qayin) and Abel is חבל (havel).
The word קין (qayin) means to acquire or possess something which is why Eve (chavah in Hebrew) said "I have gotten/acquired (qanah) a man" (Gen 4:1).
The Hebraic meanings of the names of "Cain and Abel" are windows into their characters.
Cain is a possessor, one who has substance while Abel is empty of substance.
Another interesting fact about these two that is often overlooked is that Cain and Abel are the first twins.
But notice how it is worded in Genesis 4:1,2 - she conceived and bore Cain...
The Hebrew word for "again" is "asaph" meaning to add something, in this case the birthing of Abel was added to the birthing of Cain.
The Pyramid, the cross and the Garden of Eden
42) that when Cain, after the murder of.
The first two human beings, they tell us, were Protogonos and Aion (Adam and 'Havath), who produce Genos and Genea (Qên and Qênath), from whom again are descended three brothers, named Phos, Phur, and Phlox (Light, Fire, and Flame), because they "have discovered how to produce fire by the friction of two pieces of wood, and have taught the use of this element." In another fragment, at the origin of the human race we see in succession the fraternal couples of Autochthon and Technites (Adam and Quen--Cain?), inventors of the manufacture of bricks; Agros and Agrotes (Sade and Cêd), fathers of the agriculturists and hunters; then Amynos and Magos, "who taught to dwell in villages and rear flocks."
"And the title of Ἀλῆται, given to Agros and Agrotes in the Greek of the Phœnician history, fits in wonderfully with the physiognomy of the race of the Cainites in the Bible narrative, whether we take Ἀλῆται simply as a Hellenized transcription of the Semitic Elim, 'the strong, the mighty,' or whether we take it in its Greek acceptation, 'the wanderers;' for such is the destiny of Cain and his race according to the very terms of the condemnation which was inflicted upon him after his crime (Gen.
Conclusions of the Great Flood story
iv., 2); his son Cain was the builder of the first city (chap.
iv., 17); his descendant, Tubal-cain, was the first metallurgist (chap.
The death of Adam
After Abel's death and Cain's punishment, Eve bore Seth, who became the progenitor of prophets.
After the death of Abel, and after Cain had been slain by the avenging angel, Eve bore a third son, named Seth, who became the father of the race of the prophets.
The Pre-Adamites
He believed that certain passages in Genesis suggested the existence of other humans contemporaneous with Adam and Eve, noting, for example, Cain’s fear of others and his finding a wife in the land of Nod.
Cain's Exile: After Cain kills Abel, he expresses fear of being killed by others, which La Peyrère argued implied the existence of other people who could harm him.
Cain’s Wife: Cain finds a wife in the land of Nod, suggesting that there were other people from whom he could choose a spouse, indicating a population outside of his immediate family.
The Mark of Cain: God places a mark on Cain to protect him from being killed by others, which again suggests the presence of other people at the time.
Lamech
Seth is a son of Adam and Eve, introduced in Genesis as the child given to them after the death of Abel and the banishment of Cain.
Lamech, the descendant of Cain: This Lamech is a sixth-generation descendant of Cain and is known for his boast about killing a young man and having multiple wives, Adah and Zillah.
Adam in Yaldabaoth’s Paradise
Yaldabaoth deceptively named the two: Cain and Abel.
Irad
He is the son of Enoch, the grandson of Cain, and the father of Mehujael.
This lineage is part of the genealogy of Cain, the first son of Adam and Eve and the brother of Abel.
After killing Abel, Cain was marked by God and sent away from his family.
The name "Nod" itself means "wandering," which could imply that it was not a specific place but a symbolic or generalized location representing Cain's life as a fugitive and wanderer.
The descendants of Cain, including Irad, are part of the narrative that traces the lineages before the Great Flood.
18 To Enoch was born Irad, and Irad was the father of Mehujael, and Mehujael was the father of Methushael, and Methushael was the father of Lamech.19 Lamech married two women, one named Adah and the other Zillah.20 Adah gave birth to Jabal; he was the father of those who live in tents and raise livestock.21 His brother’s name was Jubal; he was the father of all who play stringed instruments and pipes.22 Zillah also had a son, Tubal-Cain, who forged all kinds of tools out of bronze and iron.
Tubal-Cain’s sister was Naamah.23 Lamech said to his wives, “Adah and Zillah, listen to me; wives of Lamech, hear my words.
I have killed a man for wounding me, a young man for injuring me.24 If Cain is avenged seven times, then Lamech seventy-seven times.”25 Adam made love to his wife again, and she gave birth to a son and named him Seth, saying, “God has granted me another child in place of Abel, since Cain killed him.”26 Seth also had a son, and he named him Enosh.
25 Adam made love to his wife again, and she gave birth to a son and named him Seth, saying, “God has granted me another child in place of Abel, since Cain killed him.”
Abel and Osiris
Abel was murdered by his brother Cain out of jealousy and anger, as documented in the Book of Genesis.
Abel's sacrifice is favored by God over Cain's, indicating his moral superiority.
Abel's death leads to divine punishment and the marking of Cain, introducing themes of sin, punishment, and redemption in the biblical narrative.
Seth
According to the Hebrew Bible, he had two brothers: Cain and Abel.
According to Genesis 4:25, Seth was born after Abel's murder by Cain, and Eve believed that God had appointed him as a replacement for Abel.
After Abel 's death, Seth is indicated as righteous by Judeo-Christian theology, in contrast to Cain.
The origin of the name ( שת ) is not clear, but it is assumed that it means named, because when she is born, Eve says: " ...God gave me ( שית ) another son in place of Abel; because Cain killed him.
Seth and his brothers waged continuous wars against the Divs (giants), descendants of Cain.
Abel: Ruler of water and earth
He was a younger brother of Cain, and the second son of Adam and Eve
He rules over the elements of water and earth, alongside Cain, who is seen as Yahweh, ruling over the elements of fire and wind.
Chapter LXXVI – Cain becomes jealous of Abel because of his sisters.
1 And the children began to grow stronger and taller; but Cain was hard-hearted, and ruled over his younger brother.
2 Often when his father made an offering, Cain would remain behind and not go with them, to offer up.
10 But as to the hard-hearted Cain, Satan came to him by night, showed himself and said to him, “Since Adam and Eve love your brother Abel so much more than they love you, they wish to join him in marriage to your beautiful sister because they love him.
But the devil remained behind in Cain’s heart, and frequently aspired to kill his brother.
Chapter LXXVII – Cain, 15 years old, and Abel 12 years old, grow apart.
1 But when Adam saw that the older brother hated the younger, he endeavored to soften their hearts, and said to Cain, “O my son, take of the fruits of your sowing and make an offering to God, so that He might forgive you for your wickedness and sin.”
7 But as to Cain, he did not want to make an offering, but after his father became very angry, he offered up a gift once.
9 And they all thus lived together in the cave in which Eve had brought forth, until Cain was fifteen years old, and Abel twelve years old.
Creator(s) of Adam
The sixth is Cain, whom the great generations of men call the sun.
Human lifespan declines
…some find a link between the genealogy descended from Cain (Gen 4:17–22) and that from Seth (5:6–32).
The first Lamech had taken God’s assurance of sevenfold vengeance on anyone who kills Cain (4:15) and multiplied it by eleven for even a blow—that is, vengeance was no longer in God’s hands, and it was fiercer (4:23–24).
At the seventh hour, Adam married Eve; at the eighth, Cain and his sister were born; at the ninth, they were forbidden to eat of the tree; at the tenth hour Adam fell; at the eleventh he was banished from Eden; and at the twelfth, he felt the sweat and pain of toil.
7 -> Adam married Eve8 -> Cain and his sister were born9 -> They were forbidden to eat of the tree10 -> Adam fell11 -> He was banished from Eden12 -> He felt the sweat and pain of toil
Elohim, The powerful ones
He rules over the elements of water and earth, alongside Cain, who is seen as Yahweh ruling over the elements of fire and wind.
Yahweh YHWH – The Lord God
Yaldabaoth deceptively named the two: Cain and Abel.
The Nephilim
The descendants of Seth and Cain, including the Anunnaki like Noah, aimed to preserve their bloodline through humans.
Others view them as offspring of the descendants of Seth and Cain.
And they told one another, 'Come, let us choose for us daughters from Cain's children; let us bear children for us.
Likewise, a long-held view among some Christians is that the "sons of God" were the formerly righteous descendants of Seth who rebelled, while the "daughters of men" were the unrighteous descendants of Cain, and the Nephilim the offspring of their union.
Deuteronomy 14:1; 32:5); according to these sources, these men had begun to pursue bodily interests, and so took wives of "the daughters of men", e.g., those who were descended from Cain or from any people who did not worship God.
Certain wise men of old wrote concerning them, and say in their [sacred] books that angels came down from heaven and mingled with the daughters of Cain, who bare unto them these giants.
But when they transgressed and mingled with the children of Cain, and begat children, ill-informed men said, that angels had come down from heaven, and mingled with the daughters of men, who bear them giants.
Nephites
Others view them as offspring of the descendants of Seth and Cain.
Adam, the first humans
According to Genesis 4:25, Seth was born after the death of Abel and Eve believed that he was appointed by God to establish a new offspring, replacing Abel, killed by Cain.
Traditionally seen as the firstborn, Cain's story involves agriculture and the darker aspects of human nature, like jealousy and violence.
In an evolutionary context, Cain could represent the transition from nomadic hunter-gatherer societies to settled agricultural communities.
However, it also brought new challenges, such as property disputes and social inequalities, reflecting the complexities of Cain's story.
This stage represents an evolution in human subsistence strategies, involving animal husbandry and a more nomadic or semi-nomadic lifestyle, contrasting with Cain's agricultural focus.
Chapter LXXIV – The birth of Cain and Luluwa.
And Adam ministered to Eve in the cave, until the end of eight days; when they named the son Cain, and the daughter Luluwa.
7 The meaning of Cain is “hater,” because he hated his sister in their mother’s womb; before they came out of it.
Therefore Adam named him Cain.
9 Then Adam and Eve waited until Cain and his sister were forty days old, when Adam said to Eve, “We will make an offering and offer it up in behalf of the children.”
Root Races
In consequence of this [black magic], war was declared, the story of which would be too long to narrate; its substance may be found in the disfigured allegories of the race of Cain, the giants, and that of Noah and his righteous family.
Aessir Anunnaki
And they told one another, 'Come, let us choose for us daughters from Cain's children; let us bear children for us.
Likewise, a long-held view among some Christians is that the "sons of God" were the formerly righteous descendants of Seth who rebelled, while the "daughters of men" were the unrighteous descendants of Cain, and the Nephilim the offspring of their union.

But when they transgressed and mingled with the children of Cain, and begat children, ill-informed men said, that angels had come down from heaven, and mingled with the daughters of men, who bear them giants.
Cain and Abel
1 The Humans saw the presence of a distinguishing mark on Eve when the Ishshah (Hybrid) became pregnant, and delivered the presence of the distinguishing mark on Cain and said, I have gotten a human servant from YHWH.
And Abel was the ruler of a Multitude but Cain was made a servant in the territory.
3 And after a time Cain (the Possessor of the Spear) brought his offspring of the territory as a tribute to YHWH.
5 And Cain's tribute they looked at.
And Cain was very grieved because their appearance fell short.
And YHWH said Cain are grieved because their appearance fell short.
And Cain thought against Abel their brethen and in the wild Cain rose up against their brethen and killed them.
9 And YHWH told Cain how Abel their brethren intended to cohabit with each other for protection
13 And Cain said to YHWH this consequence is greater than we can bear.
And YWHW said, Therefore whoever kills a Cain, you can take vengeance on them sevenfold.
then YHWH disguised the distinguishing mark on Cain, so they would not be recognized an attacked.
And Cain went out from the presence of YHWH and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.
17 And Cain (the Possesor of the Spear) cohabited with the Ishshah and conceived, and bare Enoch: and built a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of their children Enoch.
Because if Cain can take vengeance sevenfold, then Lamech seventy sevenfold.
And the Humans cohabited with the Ishshah still and brought forth aliens and called their name Seth, and the Elohiym regarded the foreign seed as beneath Abel because Cain killed them.
1 Adam[a] made love to his wife Eve, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Cain.[b] She said, “With the help of the Lord I have brought forth[c] a man.”
Now Abel kept flocks, and Cain worked the soil.
3 In the course of time Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the Lord.
5 but on Cain and his offering he did not look with favor.
So Cain was very angry, and his face was downcast.
6 Then the Lord said to Cain, “Why are you angry?
8 Now Cain said to his brother Abel, “Let’s go out to the field.”[d] While they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.
9 Then the Lord said to Cain, “Where is your brother Abel?” “I don’t know,” he replied.
13 Cain said to the Lord, “My punishment is more than I can bear.
15 But the Lord said to him, “Not so[e]; anyone who kills Cain will suffer vengeance seven times over.” Then the Lord put a mark on Cain so that no one who found him would kill him.
16 So Cain went out from the Lord’s presence and lived in the land of Nod, east of Eden.
17 Cain made love to his wife, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Enoch.
Cain was then building a city, and he named it after his son Enoch.
22 Zillah also had a son, Tubal-Cain, who forged all kinds of tools out of bronze and iron.
Tubal-Cain’s sister was Naamah.
