No they were not twins and NO Eve did not cheat on Adam and lay with the serpent. Also No there isn't a date given until Eve bore Seth and only Adams age is given also no date concerning Eve at all including her death.
The first five people in the Bible were God, Adam, Eve, Cain, and Abel. If you are meaning just human people (which would then exclude God) then the list would include Seth. The first four people in this answer are correct but the fifth person would be Enoch since he was Cain's first born.
A:According to the Book of Genesis, Cain and Abel wewre the first two people to be born on earth, which is probably reason enough to be famous. They are also famous as the characters in a story about how to please God, a story in which Cain murders Abel. Abel knew that God would be pleased by a sacrifice of tender meat, so his offering was a young lamb. God was so pleased with this offering that Cain could not fail to notice. Cain only offered the grain that he, as a farmer, grew, and this displeased God. Rather than placating and encouraging Cain, who was hurt by the rejection of his offering, God scolded him for showing his feelings. Cain rose up and murdered Abel, but this was incidental to the story which was really about how to please God. The story establishes that the very best meat must be sacrificed and shared with the priests.
We have precious little information on Abel. All we know from scripture is that Abel was born after Cain. However, we do not know the location of his birth. We do know that Adam and Eve were no longer allowed access to Eden, so Abel couldn't have been born there. We know that Abel kept watch over sheep and that he sacrificed the from the best of his herd and offered the fat parts to God in offering. We know that God was satisfied with Abel's sacrifice and was not satisfied with Cain's sacrifice. Finally, we know that Cain murdered Abel. That's it as far as I know with regard to his story. There are other references to Abel in scripture, even from Christ. Scripture also refers to a physical place that included the name Abel, probably in reference to the Abel of Genesis. Scripture says nothing about Abel ever marrying or having children, as far as I know. Both Cain and Abel are said to have been conceived and born after man's fall, so they did not have the privilege of seeing Eden in its glory. However, because of God's conversation with Cain after the murder, we see that God apparently still interacted directly with at least some men. We see nothing is scripture that indicated Cain was surprised to hear from God, so it had most probably happened before.
A:Biblical rivalry between Cain and Abel begins with their birth. In Genesis 4:1, Eve exults over the birth of Cain, but Abel is merely introduced as Cain's brother, with no relationship to his mother. They both make sacrifices to God, but Cain only gives grain, while Abel sacrificed a young lamb, for which God could not hide his pleasure. This made Cain angry and God, rather than placating and encouraging him, scolded Cain for showing his feelings. Later, when they were in the fields, Cain rose up against Abel and killed him. God somehow knew that Cain had murdered his brother and declared him henceforth a fugitive. Although the Bible makes it clear that until now there was no one else in the world other than Adam and Eve, his parents, Cain feared that everyone would want to kill him for what he had done, so God set a mark on Cain so that all who met him would not kill him.Asaph Sagiv believes that there is an Egyptian antecedent to the story of Cain and Abel. He suggests that the Cain and Abel story represents a biblical countermyth to the Egyptian story of Osiris and his brother Seth, although in the biblical case, Seth is not born until after the death of Abel.A:1And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD. 2And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground. 3And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering to the LORD. 4And Abel also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering: 5But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell. 6And the LORD said unto Cain, Why are you wroth? and why is your countenance fallen? 7If you do well, shall you not be accepted? and if you do not well, sin lies at the door. And to you shall be his desire, and you shall rule over him. 8And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him. 9And the LORD said to Cain, Where is Abel your brother? And he said, I know not: Am I my brother's keeper? 10And he said, What have you done? the voice of your brother's blood cries to me from the ground. 11And now are you cursed from the earth, which has opened her mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand; 12When you till the ground, it shall not henceforth yield to you her strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shall you be in the earth. 13And Cain said to the LORD, My punishment is greater than I can bear. 14Behold,you have driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from your 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 finds me shall slay me. 15And the LORD said to him, Therefore whoever slays Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the LORD set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him.See Genesis ch.4.

Cain was the first born of Cain and Abel. Gen 4:1-2
Cain and Abel
This question has several opinions both alleging and denying that Cain and Abel were twins. The answers have been separated to put the Denials first and the Affirmations second.Cain And Abel Were Not Twins AnswersAnswer 1The Bible does not conclusively answer this question, but often a birth is recorded without the antecedent declaration that *** knew his wife. Therefore, I would not think there is any reason to believe they were twins.Answer 2The Bible does not answer this conclusively, but the implication is that Cain was older.Answer 3No, Abel was the 2nd born son after Cain was already born:Genesis 4:2King James Version (KJV) 2 And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.The first set of fraternal twins mentioned were Jacob and Esau.Cain and Abel Were Twins AnswersAnswer 1I believe they were twins...one account says Adam knew his wife and she conceived and bore Cain...then she bore again and gave birth to Abel. She bore (labored, pushed) again and gave birth. If you know twins ask them which one is older and I bet they will tell you which was born first. Even if they were delivered by Cesarean section, one was born before the other, thus being called the older of the two.Answer 2Yes Cain & Abel were twins. In Gen 3:16 God said unto the woman, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and CONCEPTION. Gen 4:2 And she again bare his brother Abel. (The Hebrew word yashab can mean either again or to continue.) Eve continued on in labor from the previous verse 4:1 where Cain was born and gave birth to her 2nd son, Abel in 4:2. God said he was going to multiply her conception and he did. Further proof: Cain & Abel both reached the age that they were expected to make an offering to God at the same time. Not 5 years apart or even a year later they both made their offerings at the same time, because they were twins.
Cain was the first born of Adam and Eve. He killed his brother Abel. So, Noah, who was born about 1000 years after, didn't have any business with Cain and Abel. Hope this helps. C.
