When Cain died did he go to hell?

-----------------------Cain is part of the Hebrew scriptures and if we must determine his fate, we should do so based on Hebrew beliefs. In the first millennium BCE, Hebrew belief posited sheol, a place or state with no reward and no punishment, more a state of semi-consciousness. Even today, Jews do not have a hell. On that basis we ought to assume that Cain did not go to hell.

Where is the land of Nod nowadays?

The Land of Nod (Hebrew: 'eretz-Nod‎) is a place in the Book of Genesis of the Hebrew Bible, located "to the east of Eden", to which Cain chose to flee after murdering his brother Abel. The Hebrew word nod means "wandering"."And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden." (Genesis 4:16, King James Version) "Nod" (נוד) is the Hebrew root of the verb "to wander" (לנדוד) and is possibly an etymological etiology intended to explain the peripatetic lifestyle of Cain and his descendants, the Cainites. One interpretation of Genesis 4:16 is that Cain was cursed to wander the land forever, not that he was exiled to a "Land of Wanderers", otherwise absent from the Old Testament.
