Bible Bed Time Stories: Genesis 3: 23- 4:16 by ric gustafson
Adam and Eve were banished from the garden. A flaming sword guarded the path to the Tree of Life. Eve gave birth to a boy. His name was Cain. Then Eve had a second boy. His name was Abel.
Cain became a farmer. Abel was a shepherd. One day, Cain brought fruit to give to God. Abel also gave a gift to God. It was a lamb. God was happy with Abel's gift. God refused Cain's gift.
Cain became angry. One day, Cain killed Abel while he was walking in a field. God asked Cain. " Where is your brother?".
" I don't know" Cain replied. " Should I care for my brother?".
" What have you done?" God replied. " Abel's blood is crying to me from the ground".
Cain looked at God.
" You murdered Abel". God got angry. " You will always live under a curse".
Cain went away from God. He ended up in the land of Nod east of Eden.
