In the biblical narrative, Abel is known for offering the best of his flock to God. According to the Book of Genesis, Abel, a shepherd, presented a pleasing sacrifice of the finest lambs, which was favored by God. In contrast, his brother Cain's offering of crops was not regarded with the same approval, leading to tension between the brothers. This story highlights themes of faith, sacrifice, and divine favor.

Cain's sacrifice was not considered more acceptable than Abel's in the biblical narrative; rather, it was Abel's offering that was favored by God. Abel offered the best portions of his flock, demonstrating sincerity and devotion. In contrast, Cain's offering of produce from the ground lacked the same level of commitment and heart, which led to God's disfavor. This difference in the quality and intention behind their sacrifices is what ultimately mattered.

From the Torah's precisely-worded narrative (Genesis ch.4), we see that Cain was concerned with God's opinion of him (Genesis 4:5), but wasn't sufficiently reverent. While Hevel (Abel) brought the fats and firstborn (i.e., the choicest) of his flock as an offering, Kayin (Cain) merely offered up "of the fruits of the earth" without choosing only the best. And still worse, the sages of the Talmud interpret Cain's retort (Genesis 4:13) as an accusation against God, not a supplication.
