Who is Able in The Bible?

Able, also spelled as Abel, is a biblical figure known as the son of Adam and Eve. In the Book of Genesis, he becomes the victim of fratricide when his brother Cain murders him out of jealousy. Able is often regarded as a symbol of righteousness and faithfulness.


What was the time period of the Book of Genesis?

A:Most people are interested in when the Genesis creation began, and there are various estimates around 4000 BCE, with the most famous estimate, by Bishop Ussher, at 4004 BCE.Because the first creation story in Genesis 1:1-2:4a is not linked to any other passages in the Book of Genesis, it is timeless and could have taken place in any period of the past, but it clearly states that the whole of God's creation took six days.Conversely, the second creation story in Genesis 2:4b-25 was not limited to just six days, so could have taken as long as God chose. It is linked through Adam's descendants down to historical times, which is how theologians have been able to create a timeline for creation.The Book of Genesis ends with the death of the legendary Joseph, somewhere around 2,200 years after the creation of Adam in the second creation story - around 1800 BCE, although estimates vary.


Where did Cain and Abel live?

The Bible tells us that God created Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden and they remained there prior to Cain and Able's birth. The Bible does not tell us the exact location but indicates that perhaps our eyes are blinded to that area since Adam and Eve were driven out for their sin. The Bible mentions the river Gihon running out of Eden. Gihon which "compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia."Genesis 2:13. Also the river Hiddekel is mentioned "which goes toward the east of Assyria."Genesis 2:14 In Genesis 3:24 The Bible tells us that He (God) placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims (angels), and a flaming sword which turned every way to keep the way of the tree of life." There is no reference to where the family lived after they left Eden although we can assume it was probably somewhere in the Middle Eastern area. After Cain killed his brother he was made to be a fugitive and a vagabond and traveled the earth as his punishment. Genesis 4:11-14. He eventually fathered a child and named his son Enoch. He built a city and named the city after his son. Genesis4:17.


What does this mean Seven times cursed and seven times sealed never shall you forget those moments which murdered your God and your soul and condemned to live as long as God himself?

This phrase implies that a person has experienced a deep and lasting betrayal or trauma that they will never be able to forget. It suggests that they are cursed and burdened to carry the weight of that pain for eternity.


Where in genesis does it say a man that don't work don't eat?

Actually Paul stated this in his letter to the Thessalonians in 2 Th. 3:10. The reference in Genesis is found in Gen 3:19 where man would earn his bread by the sweat of his brow, or working for it.
