One tried to say that there was an Adam and Eve, the original progenitors of the Hebrews. And this solves the problem of who Cain and Abel married: there really were other people in other towns, where they could go to look for wives. But that doesn't work either, because then "original sin" would only apply to the Jews. So when they have Jesus say, in Matthew 15:24 that "I was sent only to the lost sheep of the nation of Israel" that would be fitting.

So Jesus is inapplicable to gentiles, and the Jews reject him.
Sucks to be a useless son of god, don't it ??
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
