004:016 And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in
the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.
004:017 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.
Your starter for ten: If the Bible is correct (as you postulated) then
where did Cain's wife come from? And, as land is defined by its'
occupiers - who created Nod?
I also have a problem with the Biblical location for Eden somewhere
between four rivers, one being the Nile (called Gihon) and others
including the Euphrates. Is this a description of Egypt and it's
conquored territories?
