Cain and Abel: Explanation Please. Pretty Pretty Please!

[C4RM5]

The whole idea behind this biblical story is to fortell Jesus' death on the cross. Hence the fact that only a blood sacrafice will save you from your sins. This is why Abel found God's favour and not Cain. Also Cain was punished for his sin through separation from God and other humans " You will be a restless wanderer on the earth" Genisis 4 12.

Despite not mentioning the messiah anywhere in the passage.

@Huggy; if Cain is not Adam's son, then neither is Seth, since the same language is used to describe the conception of both of them.

It is a recurring theme throught the Bible that only blood shed can pay for sin and Jesus' death is the ultimate sacrafice the Bible is leading up to. Jesus' death paid for are sin and that is why christians do not sacrafice animals, we just look to the cross. "For God so loved the world he gave his one and only Son that who so ever believes in him shall not perish but have ever lasting life" John 3 16
