Comments on: Cain is not mentioned in the genealogy of Adam – Why? http://BibleQ.info/answer/1883/ Bible Questions Answered Thu, 17 May 2012 10:16:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: brother yochanan http://BibleQ.info/answer/1883/comment-page-1/#comment-1187 brother yochanan Thu, 31 Mar 2011 05:23:58 +0000 http://BibleQ.info/?p=1883#comment-1187 Cain is not mentioned because Seth is the important son. If a father has many sons not all are mentioned just the important ones. Josephus claims that shem married maria a daughter of cain thus taking cains lineage onto the ark. Jesus refers to cains lineage when he says Ye are of your father the devil and he was a liar and a murderer from the beginning. Catholic tweak here using devil.. the devil never killed anyone the devil is not allowed to kill (if he existed, devil is metaphor for flesh quite often) Cain killed and then he lied about it.
