re: Larry Marek's article Adam and Eve had more than two sons. Although the Bible does not give an exact time table for the birth of their off-springs, Gen. 5:4,5 says "And the days of Adam after his fathering Seth came to be eight hundred years. Meanwhile he became father to sons and daughters. So all the days of Adam that he lived amounted to nine hundred and thirty years and he died." (New World Translation) We do not know how old Cain and Abel were when the first murder took place, so it is quite possible that Adam and Eve had other grown children, including daughters, when Cain was forced to flee. Obviously, if one believes the Bible, he would have had to marry one of his sisters. Kit Kimes Western Electric Co. Montgomery Works Aurora, Ill. !lime!we13!kik
