Adam & Eve Part 3: Everyone That Findeth Me?

So you may be thinking, how is this tied into Adam and Eve? Well, it’s one of those things that you miss in the story of Adam and Eve, until you get to Cain and Abel. Let me show you for those who may be confused.

Genesis 4:13-14 KJVS

And Cain said unto the LORD, My punishment is greater than I can bear. [14] Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me.

This is where we receive our first major clue that something was up. We missed an “easter egg” as the term is used today to describe a hidden piece of information. Need it be in a movie, show, or video game. Likewise, this verse is one of the first verses we analyze and are met with the question of, “what does Cain mean when he says, “that every one that findeth me shall slay me?”” Especially, given the fact, that many of us were taught and believed that ONLY Adam and Eve were made and they had Cain and Able. Cain slew Able, so who are all of these people that may find him? But wait there’s more!

Genesis 4:17 KJVS

And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch.

If you read on a little further, you then find that Cain ended up finding a wife. Now your like, “where did she come from?!? And because of the lack of understanding, now you have other doctrines that come up. Ranging from oh, maybe they are from Adam’s other wife, you know his first wife before Eve, Lilith. When that is a false doctrine. Technically an embellished writing. Made to make a story seem more colorful and elaborate. Found in pseudepigrapha writings such as the book of Enoch or the book of Jasher, or the book of Jubilee. Some of which are indeed mentioned in the scriptures but the books found and made today are not sound doctrine. They are literally false writings made by man to create an elaborate story, based on some of the things written and how man interprets them. Most of which have red flags that are evident when you understand the scriptures precept upon precept.

Genesis 5:1-2 KJVS

This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him; [2] Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.

Boom, then it hit. When we read about the creation story in Genesis chapter one, it wasn’t what we initially thought it was. It wasn’t God made Adam and then in verse two explains how. But rather God made Adam and then made Adam and gave him Eve. A little confusing? Let me help you out. Let us look up Adam using the Strong’s Concordance of the Bible:

Adam

Strong’s Number

H120

Original Word

אדם

Transliterated Word

'âdâm

Phonetic Spelling

aw-dawm'

Parts of Speech

Noun Masculine

Strong's Definition

From H119; {ruddy} that {is} a human being (an individual or the {species} {mankind } etc.): - X {another} + {hypocrite} + common {sort} X {low} man ({mean} of low {degree}) person

When you are reading about Adam, he is both a literal man as well as the name used to describe what we would call today mankind, or human beings. So when you read Genesis chapter five verse one through two, it is giving you this understanding. God made a group of people and named them Adam; he named them human beings/mankind. As his goal, as with all life that he made, was to make a group of creatures.

Genesis 1:20-25 KJVS

And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. [21] And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. [22] And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. [23] And the evening and the morning were the fifth day. [24] And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so. [25] And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

God was creating groups of animals, he didn’t create one of everything and that was it. No, he created full sized versions of every creature he made. So for those that ask, “What came first, the chicken or the egg?” Which is a legitimate question. The chicken was what God created first and gave it the ability in the day of creation to be able to lay eggs. Think about it. What makes the most sense. Would you rather create many eggs and babies that have no parent to care for them but now you as a creator have to? Or would you rather create fully grown and developed creatures and give them instincts to guide them? Because I gave them instincts I don’t have to worry about the day to day nurturing, you are already programed with a biological computer to know what to do or at least have a solid intuition on what to do. The only creature who needed that guidance was man. That’s why even when it came down to Cain, God was talking to him and Cain felt comfortable getting smart with God. God was very close to his creation but became increasingly distant and shifted his focus, as we as mankind became more wicked.

We also read another key detail in Genesis chapter five and verse one as well as in Genesis chapter one and verse twenty-six.

Genesis 1:26 KJVS

And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

Even when God made man, it was never about, let him or even her, for that matter, but rather let THEM. Showing that the intent and action from the beginning, was to make a group of people just as he made a group of every other creature.
