| 17 hours ago | comment | added | Ryan Pierce Williams | If Abel was a shepherd then it would have been normal for him to be in the field; he wouldn't have needed inviting. And you are overlooking the Cain's judgement and how it mirros that for a manslaughterer rather than that of a murderer; I think that really needs to be addressed before one can rightly conclude that Cain was a murderer. | |
| 17 hours ago | comment | added | So Few Against So Many | @RyanPierceWilliams, it is the most logical conclusion, Abel was going on about his daily business of shepherding and then Cain draws him with a made up excuse and then this leads to that up to the climax of the sin. Abel is the first saint born of men, from the blood of innocent Abel.... | |
| 17 hours ago | comment | added | Ryan Pierce Williams | It is worth noting that not all translations say that Cain invited Abel out into the fields. I’m not sure why the difference in translation for Genesis 4:8, but it does seem to add weight to the argument that Cain’s attack was premeditated IF it is correct that he invited him out into the field. | |
