Sermon Bible Commentary - Genesis 4:1-26

Genesis 4:0 I. From the story of Cain we gather the following thoughts: I. Eve's disappointment at the birth of Cain should be a warning to all mothers. Over-estimate of children may be traced sometimes to extreme love for them; it may also arise on the part of parents from an overweening estimate of themselves. II. We see next in the history of Cain what a fearful sin that of murder is. The real evil of murder (apart from its theftuous character) lies in the principles and feelings from... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Genesis 4:8-13

Genesis 4:8-13 Sin finds in the very constitution of the human mind the enginery of its own retribution. I. The very consciousness of sin is destructive of a sinner's peace. II. Sin tends to develop sin. III. The consciousness of guilt is always more or less painfully attended with the apprehension of its discovery. IV. A foreboding of judicial and eternal retribution is incident to sin. V. From all this we see the preciousness of the work of Christ. He becomes a reality to us, only because He... read more

DISCOURSE: 9THE DEATH OF ABELGenesis 4:8-10. And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him. And the Lord said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not: Am I my brother’s keeper? And He said, What hast thou done? The voice of thy brother’s blood crieth unto me from the ground.IT is scarcely to be conceived how much iniquity there is in the heart of fallen man. That we have... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Genesis 4:1-26

Lets turn to Genesis Chapter four.Adam and Eve have been expelled from the Garden of Eden because of their disobedience to God.And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord ( Genesis 4:1 ).Now there are always people who are ready to make up theories concerning how certain things happened or what certain things were. But let me say wherever the Bible is silent it is best that we be silent. I'm not really interested in conjecturing on... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Genesis 4:1-26

Genesis 4:1. I have gotten. קניתי kaniti, from the root kana, he possessed. The LXX have betrayed their ignorance of the Eternal Word, or Wisdom, by frequently rendering this word created. God could no more create his own wisdom than Eve could create Cain. See Proverbs 8:22, and Sirach 24. Cain; that is, a possession. Abel; that is, vanity. Augustine makes Cain to be a figure of the men of this world, who have their good things in the present life. Abel he regards as a figure of... read more

Genesis 4:1-16Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the groundThe story of Cain and AbelI.RELIGION ACTUATED MEN IN THE VERY EARLIEST TIMES. II. THE MERE NATURAL RELIGION IS ESSENTIALLY DEFECTIVE. 1. In its offerings. 2. In the power which it exercises over the passions. 3. In its sympathy (Genesis 4:9). III. SPIRITUAL RELIGION ALONE COMMENDS A MAN TO GOD. This is illustrated in the life of Abel. 1. He possessed faith. 2. He offered an acceptable sacrifice to God. 3. Spiritual... read more

Genesis 4:10The voice of thy brother’s blood criethThe first prayer on recordGod taught Cain that all facts which take place here, are recorded too; aye, that they need no kind of attendant watcher, who supervising their proceedings shall note them in a book (though for ought we know to the contrary, this is true as well); but that they each have that peculiar quality attached by God to themselves that not a deed of any kind can happen but it becomes a witness in itself and bears record of its... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Genesis 4:10

Gen 4:10 And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother’s blood crieth unto me from the ground. Ver. 10. What hast thou done? ] Here God appeals to the murderer’s conscience, which is instead of a thousand witnesses. As oft as we feel the secret smitings of our own hearts for sin, think we hear him that is greater than our hearts, saying to us as here, What havae you done? And that there is no good to be done by denying or dawbing, for he knows all things, 1Jn 3:20 and requires... read more

Wesley's Explanatory Notes - Genesis 4:10

And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground.And he said, What hast thou done? — Thou thinkest to conceal it, but the evidence against thee is clear and uncontestable, the voice of thy brother's blood crieth - He speaks as if the blood itself were both witness and prosecutor, because God's own knowledge testified against him, and God's own justice demanded satisfaction. The blood is said to cry from the ground, the earth, which is said,... read more
