Quote:4:16 And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.

4:17 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.

Thinking

Except that doesn't really answer the question of "where the fuck did she come from?"

There is no answer for that one.

There's a apologetic argument called the "Pre-Adamites". By this theology, Yahweh pulled two different creations, explaining the contradictions between chapter 1 and chapter 2 of Genesis. Cain left one creation and moved to the one Yahweh created in chapter 1.

It's an interpretation that isn't widely adopted by Christians and while it does explain some of the problem reconciling 1 and 2, others remain unanswered. For example, why did it not occur to Yahweh to create woman right away when he had already done so in chapter 1? And why was it necessary to recreate birds out of the ground when he'd already done so out of the water in chapter 1? And why was it a problem that there was no man to till the soil in chapter 2 when Yahweh created the plants in chapter 1 a day before creating the sun and three days before creating humans?

To paraphrase a famous song, when I think of all the crap I learned from apologetics, it's a wonder I can think at all.
