I don't think so. He would not have survived the great flood. But if he is alive today, his whereabouts would be unknown since nobody will notice an immortal being is walking among them.
That's assuming the flood narrative is literal and not allegorical hyperbole and polemical against sin by nature or an idiom. Of a local Eastern flood than a global one. Of a local rather than global population.
@@noahtylerpritchett2682 The biblical flood myth is most likely just a copy of a much older babylonian flood myth anyway that has almost exactly the same story (man gets told by a god to build a boat for his family and pairs of all animals after the gods want to destroy humanity, there though not because of sin but because they were just annoyed that there were too many humans). The first texts that mentions the Noah flood were written after the Babylonian exile (like the rest of the books of Moses, there's no evidence that they're older than that or that Moses actually wrote them himself or that Moses even existed at all), so quite a coincidence that they had no flood myth of their own, then spend a lot of time in Babylon where they heard the Babylonian flood myth, then afterwards their own mythology suddenly includes a flood myth that's almost identical to the Babylonian flood myth.

The Bible says Adam and Eve were the very first humans God created. It doesnt say anything about the only humans. After Adam and Eve sinned, they were kicked out of the Garden and their first 2 children were Cain and Abel. But not the only offspring. That being said, after the exile, I believe God decided to create more humans elsewhere. Even before Adam and Eve had children. That would explain Cain being afraid of being killed by someone in a foriegn land, and how he was able to find a wife.
@@endofsociety do you know not everything is written in the Bible. If it was then we would not have any reason to not believe that God exists. And many theologians believe that Adam and eve had other children and when Cain killed Abel there was a time gap where other children rebelled and settled somewhere.
The amount of content the book of Genesis provides is endless. God I love this book. From theories about Cain, the Nephilim, the antediluvian world, Jacob's ladder, Jacob (Yakub) and the selective breeding of sheep, Nimrod... Etc etc etc.
The accurate pronunciation of Jacob is Ya'akov. The 'vet' is always mistaken with 'bet' among non jewish speakers. But I will read the 5 books and expand on each. I'd really love to read Leviticus (Va Ykra), the 3rd book, because it's about rules and mitzvot, what establishes the fondation to all other monotheistic religions, the modern culture and most importantly, how to apply them in the daily life.
@@danirm1171 this is true, but I meant Yakub as in the mad scientist from the Nation of Islam who used a technique to selectively breed people to create the different races. Many people believe the story of Yakub the scientist was inspired by the sheep breeding story of Jacob in Genesis.
Here’s the thing that doesn’t make sense though,who’s gonna harm Cain if there’s no other people other than Adam,Eve and Cain? Even whenever Genesis opens up it says”We shall make man in OUR image…who’s our? The Bible is so edited that we’ll never know what the actual truth is. One thing I do know for sure is that the “God” of the Bible (whose name is Yahweh and is the Israelites god) is not our creator God. Read the Old Testament and ask yourself if your almighty loving creator God would even do 5% of the terrible acts Yahweh commits.

You go to the zoo with some friends. There's an elderly man tossing some feed to the zebras. His skin is olive in color, his shoulder-length curly hair is grey with streaks of black and silvery-white, and he has a large bushy beard with the same colors. You look at his arm and notice a strange mark, it has a deliberate shape like a scar from getting burned with a branding iron, but its color is unnatural as if a tattoo-artist added color to it. He notices you staring and says "I've changed since then. Now I tend to the animals, it's a peaceful life and carries on my brother's work."
He's dead - he wasn't made immortal - just cursed to forever wander the earth while he was alive. Only two people in the Bible ever did not experience death - Enoch (a descendant of Adam before the Flood of Noah) and the prophet Elijah. Ironically, Enoch was also a prophet.
Moses also didn't taste death. Remember it was Moses and Elijah that appeared to Jesus on Mount Transfigeration to administer to Jesus. Moses and Elijah needed to have a physical body to do that.
Cain, according to biblical legend, was sent to the land of Nod, by the Creator. This land is where the term,..”Nod off!” Originated from this! Interesting!!
No, “nod off to sleep” (when your head starts to go down because you’re tired and your neck droops) has nothing to do with Hebrew “nod”: that root, in Hebrew, means “wander,” NOT “move your head down.”

The original Command & Conquer game had the concept of Cain (Kane) being very much alive and having organized and run a cult for thousands of years. According to the lead designer he would spend long periods utterly uninterested in the affairs of man, devoting himself to private pursuits. However when the game takes place his cult has risen in prominence as a world power and he competes with the a fictionalized NATO of sorts or dominance over the Earth, motivated by visions of catastrophe that have convinced him only he and his "Brotherhood of Nod" can save mankind from extinction. Now, later on this lore was ignored or retconned but I always found the original concept fascinating and original.
Wrote a serial for my high school paper back in the day where Cain, Judas, Lilith (going by Lilly) and Loginus traveled Europe in the 1970s hunting demons, fallen angels, and monsters all in a hope that God would eventually let them die.
Do you still have any copies or materials? Simple but ripe potential to that idea; the video game franchise "Darksiders" has a similar premise for how this comic book-esque dark fantasy interpretation of The Four Horsemen came into being- during the Nephilim's crusade upon the Earth, four particularly powerful members of this Earth-born non-human race had grown weary and separated from their brethren and turned against the rest. A cosmic band (who basically bears testament to both sides of Heaven and Hell's war as indiscriminate witnesses, to ensure the pact regarding the Judgement of Man is maintained) offer them positions as enforcers, to act in the event that the Balance is violated by either spiritual army. "Monsters killing monsters righteously" is deliciously ironic and I'm here for it.

Yes. It is a great Vampire origin story. I never rp'ed but own and have read all the 2nd and 3rd edition gamebooks and novels. Still some of my favorite fiction if not my absolute favorite.
That was my first thought seeing the title of this video. I love how the vampire world is split into one faction that thinks it's all mythology and another that takes it literally
yes, it gives hope for cain. he's given immortality so that he has plenty of time to repent. but he never does. the thirst for blood is his own curse upon himself and his childer.
I've always understood that Cain was cursed to wonder all the days of his life. I never believed that the mark meant that he was cursed with eternal life. And that idea goes against why God kicked Adam and Eve out of the garden. God didn't want Adam and Eve to eat from the Tree of Eternal life because he didn't want them to live eternally cursed. So for this to be Cain's fate to be eternally cursed to live on the earth today goes against this.
This reminded me of the Kain series by Karl Edward Wagner in which he's immortal (immune to the ravages of aging) but still killable by violence or accident. The author made his piercing blue eyes his mark. This Kain remains unrepentent and determined to defy "the insane god who made mankind". He lives on to spite him. He's often portrayed as a power-hungry warlord, crime-boss, or a lone adventurer / thug. He becomes an incredible warrior due to all of the experience he acquires. His mother was Lilith, the mother of monsters, and he's considered one of the Seven Lords of Chaos. It's a dark and brutal series, but a good read if you like fantasy.
The Book of Jasher says that he was killed unintentionally by Lamech, one his descendants. This is why his narrative with his two wives is included in Genesis 4 where he says, "If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, then Lamech seventy-sevenfold." According to the book of Jasher his son Tubal-Cain was guiding him while hunting. His eyesight was poor so he relied on Tubal-Cain to direct his arrow. Tubal-Cain, having seen Cain, instructed Lamech to aim and fire his arrow. When Lamech learned of his error he became very defensive and thus the narrative in Gen. 4. Cain was marked- a warning from God- not made immortal.
Lamech took 2 wives becasue he was a sexual deviant. He killed a man most likely because that man caught lamech sleeping with his wife and then killed the man’s son after the son attacked lamech for killing his father. Makes the most sense. I have no idea how Cain was killed… but we can be assured that Cain is not still alive.
I could think of no greater curse then to walk the earth forever unable to die and watching every person I loved turn to dust . It's truly a fate worse then death

@@maladroitknight the story of genesis about fall of mankind is not supposed to be understood literally because bible itself teaches you that eating symbolizes act of adultery(in proverbs 30:20 you can clearly see that and theres even more that i can bombard you with but i think thats enough) the doctrine of "serpents seed" which was common back then can be seen in 1john 3:12 "cain.....of that wicked one..." and im going to stop there. its history goes as far back as the fight between ASHURA and INDRA
It really depends, because this was in the same vein of the Nephilim who were the offspring of Angles and Humans, the real reason for the flood. When they died, their spirits had no place in heaven or in hell because they were an abomination never meant to exist, so they became wandering malevolent spirits (demons). So there's a possibility that if Cain was tainted as much as them, then he'd probably be a demon at this point.
Do you buy into the story he is the first vampire? He spilled his brothers blood, and the curse is his thirst for it. Being cursed by God to not die, sunlight could not kill him. He lived feeding off people, and when he "faded into obscurity," it was him beginning a great slumber to awake at a later time.
His curse is that the ground will no longer bear food for him. There were no grocery stores, you had to work for your food. So for a farmer to no longer be able to farm, he has to learn a new way of making food, tending livestock. Doing the task his brother did. So not only does he need to learn it, w/o his brothers help. But it's a constant reminder every day of his brother.
"Eternity" only came to mean forever in the mid 14th century. Before then, it meant "an age," and an age is an unspecified time. It could be a decade, or a generation, or an era. It doesn't mean Caine lived forever. It meant he endured for a time with the curse that was put upon him.

Why do you call “the wandering Jew” a biblical figure? He’s nowhere in the Bible; he was invented in the Middle Ages as a story to make people hate Jews more.
Yes, Cain, the spirit within Cain that was cursed to wander, is still alive. I took his spirit out of his body and cursed him to wander in the earth as Cain for his sins of, well, basically narcissism, jealousy and vengeance with magic. He still lives today after wandering in spirit for 2600 years
No. This i not an episode of Lucifer. Cain was killed by rocks from his house that fell on him in a great earthquake. He killed Abel with a stone and Cain was also killed by a stone.
The Count of St. Germain was known for being a show off and embellishing his tales, he purposely spread stories that made him look way older than he was, as if he was immortal. He pretty much achieved what he wanted: to become a legend through his stories.
I'm interested how in the Epic of Beowulf, Grendal, the evil troll-demon is mentioned as being a descendent of Cain. That is an interesting concept... that Cain, through some weird way brought forth evil creatures into other legendariums
Adam, Eve, Abel, Kane. Once Abel died, who was Kane worried about killing him if they were the only three humans? Why wouldn't Kane have said he were worried from Adam or Eve? They were the only other two?
Because we’ve been thinking about it wrong… those four are from our spices of humanity. The world was more likely to have been like something out of a J.R Tolkien novel than how we think about it. So it stands to reason that there were other humanoids.
We Cain/Caine/Kane/Keighn/Keins don't get along eith Abels. Mine was some blonde haired little punk mocking me in grade school. I punched him in the face.
So there were a ton of people around the world by the time Cain killed Able. Context clues are as follows. 1) Cain got a wife 2) he was given a mark to prevent people from killing him 3) Cain built a city 4) Methuselah (Son of Enoch, a great grandson of Adam) lived 969 years. The years of Cain are not recorded but that's because the line of Noah was traced through Seth, the third KNOWN son of Adam. It was recorded that the lineage had many sons and daughters but I believe the first born (or maybe notable members) were named in scripture. Now we don't know if he died of natural causes, by nephilim, by other men, or by the flood, but he is no longer spoken of after Genesis chapter 4. Consider this And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment Hebrews chapter 9:27 Cain is not immortal. He is dead, may God spare his soul.
He's Dracula. Cula came from Cain meaning no sleep. He avoided the sunlight up to the point where it hurts him. Being able to live forever, he also evolves
@@A_Stereotypical_Hereticthat actually wasn’t his name Dracula means son of the dragon, it was a nickname since his dad was dracul meaning the dragon, also a nickname since
Dracula means "son of the dragon" and is the name of a real dude who actually objectively existed. It's a play of his father's epithet, Dracul, which came from his involvement in the brotherhood of the dragon. He was also called Tepes, "the impaler," but Dracula is something he actually called himself based on surviving records. It obviously has absolutely nothing to do with Cain. Although, fictionally, both have been interpreted as vampires. The difference is, Cain is entirely fictional, while Vlad was a real dude, he just wasn't a vampire. Still a monster, though.
You’ve got it wrong. They also had twin sisters, and Jacob was supposed to marry Cain’s twin sister, while Cain was to marry Abel’s twin sister. However, Cain preferred to marry his own twin sister because he found her more beautiful. Additionally, both sisters loved Abel more, often praising him and following him around. This jealousy Cain felt toward Abel stemmed not only from the Creator’s favor but also from Abel’s popularity among their peers. Cain was always dirty and frustrated from the hard labor of farming, while Abel stayed clean by merely tending to his sheep. Abel would often let his sheep graze on the crops Cain worked hard to grow, which only fueled Cain's resentment toward him. Their arguments were constant. As the older brother, Cain expected more respect, so when the Creator favored Abel’s offering over his, it became the tipping point that led him to eliminate his competition. The Creator marked Cain to protect him from being killed by other men, indicating that Adam and Eve were not the only humans around. This mark did not mean he would live forever but rather that no one was allowed to kill him except the Creator. Afterward, Cain kidnapped his twin sister and went on to build the first city of mankind, where he ruled for a thousand years. Ultimately, he was killed by his own son Shem, who, while hunting and blind, mistook his father for a deer and shot him with an arrow through his head, leading to Cain’s demise.
@@KateGladstone There is not only one Shem like there was only not one Noah. Those were names used afterwards in various times. Cain had a son called Shem who was blind. Also Noah named one of his son Shem.
Im currently writing a novel with Cain as the main character. In the book i interpret his mark as a curse of immortality, and he's lived throughout all human history, and now its the Tribulation and hes wandering the post apocalyptic wasteland
Something that is a tad bit spooky about this Biblical story is that Cain was afraid of being killed by anyone who came across him. If Adam, Eve, and Cain sans Abel were the only human beings at the moment of the deed, who is he talking about? Is he afraid of his father? His mother? He went to the region called Nod, and found a wife. He then had children, who had children, and more children, even more, and then some more. Then Eve bore another son, who was Seth. Of course if we go back to Chapter 1 of Genesis, we see how the world was created by God and then on the sixth day, humans were created in his image and likeness as man and woman. Then Chapter 2 talks about how Adam was created and then Eve was created from him. If you believe that Chapter 2 is a redundancy then Adam and Eve were the first two that everyone else came from. However there is a possibility that Chapter 2 is NOT redundant. Which would explain why there is people in Nod when Cain goes there.
Lilith Adams first wife. Might interest you. When i first found out years ago about her a researched her. she would not submit to Adam so god cursed & banished her from the garden of Eden. But it leaves me to believe she was the fist demon created.
Exactly God isn't going to tell Adam and Eve they'll die the same day if they ate the forbidden fruit yet give Cain immortality after he kills his brother
@blikboijohnson4968 well they didn't die that day, they died hundreds of years later...so there's that. And to people who live in absolute knowledge that paradise exists, yes immortality on earth would be a punishment. Especially when no one you know or love has it as well. You would become worse than dead in just a few hundred if not thousands of years.
@@A_Stereotypical_HereticAlthough I agree with the latter to a degree that would be torture definitely but other than Yeshua there are only 2 people spoken of in the Bible that blatantly didn't die Enoch and Elijah and possibly 2 others depending on one's own interpretations but Adam did die the same day he hate the fruit at the age of 930 as God stated he would because 1000 years to us is like a day to God so in the time Adam died it was in less than a day for God still
Adam and Eve actually did die that same day, but the 1000 years as a day has nothing to do with it. That is in reference to The Most High being outside of and unaffected by time.
Im writing a spiritual warfare graphic novel called kain, all built around the idea of humans freedom of free will and the choices we make and the consequences that come from it. Its all about cause and effect from right, wrong, black and white (sin and holy) and then the grey (free will). Im still in pre production and with this video helped me a few story ideas 💡
I think books like Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles give a very interesting peak into what immortality would actually be like. For a few hundred years there would probably be no problems mentally. But after millennia it would definitely effect your psyche. In her novels it wasn't uncommon to have vampires just walk out into the sun after around 500 years. The originals even went into a kind of slumber or hibernation after a long period of time. Even Lestat himself hid away until he got to the modern era.
Yes Cain is the original Nephilim, just as Lucifer is the original fallen son of God to mate with the original daughter of man or Adam, who of course was Eve.
I thought of that too, But the problem with this theory is that the wandering jew was cursed character made up to stir antisemitism for he was cursed as punishment for jews allegedly being partly responsible for the death of Jesus. So the wandering jew was kinda cursed on behalf of all jews Also, IMO the real story of judaism at the earliest starts from Abraham and maybe fully just after Jacob since the 12 tribes of Israel are considered to be founded on the 12 sons of Jacob. I mean would we consider Adam and Eve as jews? Probably not and so then naturally Cain and Able wouldn't be considered jews, but rather 1st people created by God
After reading Genesis a few times now, I can't conclude that he's still walking the Earth. If we are to assume Cain was made immortal due to his curse, that would make the flood incredibly painful. Months passing underwater with water in your lungs, unable to die, sounds extremely unbearable.
The idea from Vampire the Masquerade is fascinating, as punishment for what he did it was Cain cursed with immortality and to walk around the earth , being unable to grow and consume normal sustenance, becoming the first Vampire and creator of all Vampire Bloodlines , the original Bloodfather
I've always said, Eden was where God made the FIRST Man according to the scripture. But it never said Adam was the ONLY Man God Created nor that Eden was the only Garden they were made in. Perhaps the other Gardens are where other religions sprang from due to having a different relationship with their creator.
The bible never states that there were only 3 people in the world at that point. Even if people want to believe that Adam and Eve were the only humans that were directly created by god and every other human is a descendant of them, it nowhere says that cain and able were their first children. They allegedly lived for hundreds of years back then, a lot of time to make many children and considering that Cain was afraid that other people that see him would want to hurt him or that he found his wife and later founded a city in a different land, it all implies there were already a lot of other people in the world. The genealogy/lineage of humans the bible lists is only so the Israelites could trace back their own line of ancestors back to Adam and Eve, it never claims to be a complete list of all humans on earth.
There’s a fantastic comic book series about Cain roaming the earth as a cursed immortal seeking death, which always eludes him. It’s called “The Goddamned” and I highly recommend it

The Bible says Adam and Eve were the very first humans God created. It doesnt say anything about the only humans. After Adam and Eve sinned, they were kicked out of the Garden and their first 2 children were Cain and Abel. But not the only offspring. That being said, after the exile, I believe God decided to create more humans elsewhere. Even before Adam and Eve had children. That would explain Cain being afraid of being killed by someone in a foriegn land, and how he was able to find a wife.
Cain married one of his sisters but yes there had to be other ppl
Nah bro. Adam and Eve had lots and lots of children. That's why Cain was able to marry his sister

@@endofsociety do you know not everything is written in the Bible. If it was then we would not have any reason to not believe that God exists.

The accurate pronunciation of Jacob is Ya'akov. The 'vet' is always mistaken with 'bet' among non jewish speakers. But I will read the 5 books and expand on each.

@@danirm1171 this is true, but I meant Yakub as in the mad scientist from the Nation of Islam who used a technique to selectively breed people to create the different races. Many people believe the story of Yakub the scientist was inspired by the sheep breeding story of Jacob in Genesis.
Here’s the thing that doesn’t make sense though,who’s gonna harm Cain if there’s no other people other than Adam,Eve and Cain?

His skin is olive in color, his shoulder-length curly hair is grey with streaks of black and silvery-white, and he has a large bushy beard with the same colors. You look at his arm and notice a strange mark, it has a deliberate shape like a scar from getting burned with a branding iron, but its color is unnatural as if a tattoo-artist added color to it. He notices you staring and says "I've changed since then. Now I tend to the animals, it's a peaceful life and carries on my brother's work."

The original Command & Conquer game had the concept of Cain (Kane) being very much alive and having organized and run a cult for thousands of years. According to the lead designer he would spend long periods utterly uninterested in the affairs of man, devoting himself to private pursuits. However when the game takes place his cult has risen in prominence as a world power and he competes with the a fictionalized NATO of sorts or dominance over the Earth, motivated by visions of catastrophe that have convinced him only he and his "Brotherhood of Nod" can save mankind from extinction.
Now, later on this lore was ignored or retconned but I always found the original concept fascinating and original.

Wrote a serial for my high school paper back in the day where Cain, Judas, Lilith (going by Lilly) and Loginus traveled Europe in the 1970s hunting demons, fallen angels, and monsters all in a hope that God would eventually let them die.
Do you still have any copies or materials? Simple but ripe potential to that idea; the video game franchise "Darksiders" has a similar premise for how this comic book-esque dark fantasy interpretation of The Four Horsemen came into being- during the Nephilim's crusade upon the Earth, four particularly powerful members of this Earth-born non-human race had grown weary and separated from their brethren and turned against the rest. A cosmic band (who basically bears testament to both sides of Heaven and Hell's war as indiscriminate witnesses, to ensure the pact regarding the Judgement of Man is maintained) offer them positions as enforcers, to act in the event that the Balance is violated by either spiritual army. "Monsters killing monsters righteously" is deliciously ironic and I'm here for it.

I've always understood that Cain was cursed to wonder all the days of his life. I never believed that the mark meant that he was cursed with eternal life. And that idea goes against why God kicked Adam and Eve out of the garden. God didn't want Adam and Eve to eat from the Tree of Eternal life because he didn't want them to live eternally cursed. So for this to be Cain's fate to be eternally cursed to live on the earth today goes against this.
I have never thought about this. Super cool video!
This reminded me of the Kain series by Karl Edward Wagner in which he's immortal (immune to the ravages of aging) but still killable by violence or accident. The author made his piercing blue eyes his mark. This Kain remains unrepentent and determined to defy "the insane god who made mankind". He lives on to spite him. He's often portrayed as a power-hungry warlord, crime-boss, or a lone adventurer / thug. He becomes an incredible warrior due to all of the experience he acquires. His mother was Lilith, the mother of monsters, and he's considered one of the Seven Lords of Chaos. It's a dark and brutal series, but a good read if you like fantasy.
I read them in the late 80s, and love them so much.
The Book of Jasher says that he was killed unintentionally by Lamech, one his descendants. This is why his narrative with his two wives is included in Genesis 4 where he says, "If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, then Lamech seventy-sevenfold." According to the book of Jasher his son Tubal-Cain was guiding him while hunting. His eyesight was poor so he relied on Tubal-Cain to direct his arrow. Tubal-Cain, having seen Cain, instructed Lamech to aim and fire his arrow. When Lamech learned of his error he became very defensive and thus the narrative in Gen. 4. Cain was marked- a warning from God- not made immortal.
You are right.read the same script too
True.
Case closed.
Actually he died when he crashed his car off a cliff on his way to get some pickles from the market.
Lamech took 2 wives becasue he was a sexual deviant. He killed a man most likely because that man caught lamech sleeping with his wife and then killed the man’s son after the son attacked lamech for killing his father. Makes the most sense.
I have no idea how Cain was killed… but we can be assured that Cain is not still alive.
You are confusing Cain with Tubal-Cain who was killed by Lamech (two descendents of the original Cain).

@@magicmyth488 thank you for correcting, I based my comments in this video not in the actual bible
It really depends, because this was in the same vein of the Nephilim who were the offspring of Angles and Humans, the real reason for the flood. When they died, their spirits had no place in heaven or in hell because they were an abomination never meant to exist, so they became wandering malevolent spirits (demons). So there's a possibility that if Cain was tainted as much as them, then he'd probably be a demon at this point.
For some reason, my mind went straight to Deckard Cain. Then the Cain in "Lucifer".

I met him at the bar yesterday. Very funny guy.
Do you buy into the story he is the first vampire? He spilled his brothers blood, and the curse is his thirst for it. Being cursed by God to not die, sunlight could not kill him. He lived feeding off people, and when he "faded into obscurity," it was him beginning a great slumber to awake at a later time.
His curse is that the ground will no longer bear food for him. There were no grocery stores, you had to work for your food. So for a farmer to no longer be able to farm, he has to learn a new way of making food, tending livestock. Doing the task his brother did. So not only does he need to learn it, w/o his brothers help. But it's a constant reminder every day of his brother.
Yes camarilla agents this comment right here
"Eternity" only came to mean forever in the mid 14th century. Before then, it meant "an age," and an age is an unspecified time. It could be a decade, or a generation, or an era. It doesn't mean Caine lived forever. It meant he endured for a time with the curse that was put upon him.

Yes, Cain, the spirit within Cain that was cursed to wander, is still alive. I took his spirit out of his body and cursed him to wander in the earth as Cain for his sins of, well, basically narcissism, jealousy and vengeance with magic. He still lives today after wandering in spirit for 2600 years
He must have died in the Great Flood same as the Giants (Nephilim).

I like the theory of Cain being the Man in the Moon from the Middle Ages
He is the secret leader of the Brotherhood of NOD
Wonder if he was indeed The Count of St. Germaine......Personally, I don't think so, but it would make a great theory.
That's what I was gonna say. Count St. Germain
That was my thought as well as what if it meant his body was able to die but his spirit/soul was meant to wander the earth for eternity
The Count of St. Germain was known for being a show off and embellishing his tales, he purposely spread stories that made him look way older than he was, as if he was immortal. He pretty much achieved what he wanted: to become a legend through his stories.
I'm interested how in the Epic of Beowulf, Grendal, the evil troll-demon is mentioned as being a descendent of Cain. That is an interesting concept... that Cain, through some weird way brought forth evil creatures into other legendariums
Adam, Eve, Abel, Kane.
Once Abel died, who was Kane worried about killing him if they were the only three humans?
Why wouldn't Kane have said he were worried from Adam or Eve? They were the only other two?
Because we’ve been thinking about it wrong… those four are from our spices of humanity. The world was more likely to have been like something out of a J.R Tolkien novel than how we think about it. So it stands to reason that there were other humanoids.
I heard he went through a phase of being a pro wrestler. Then he went on to become a mayor of knox County tennessee
We Cain/Caine/Kane/Keighn/Keins don't get along eith Abels. Mine was some blonde haired little punk mocking me in grade school. I punched him in the face.
So there were a ton of people around the world by the time Cain killed Able. Context clues are as follows.
1) Cain got a wife
2) he was given a mark to prevent people from killing him
3) Cain built a city
4) Methuselah (Son of Enoch, a great grandson of Adam) lived 969 years.
The years of Cain are not recorded but that's because the line of Noah was traced through Seth, the third KNOWN son of Adam. It was recorded that the lineage had many sons and daughters but I believe the first born (or maybe notable members) were named in scripture.
Now we don't know if he died of natural causes, by nephilim, by other men, or by the flood, but he is no longer spoken of after Genesis chapter 4.
Consider this
And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment Hebrews chapter 9:27
Cain is not immortal. He is dead, may God spare his soul.
May God not spare his soul. He did a very bad thing.
So, then, he's basically Vandal Savage.
No. This whole video is just wrong. Not one authority in the history of the Christian Church believed this Anne Rice nonsense.

Well Dracula is Dracula... It's a family name, but I assume you mean he was the first vampire?
@@A_Stereotypical_Heretic yeah cause he has properties of a vampire. I mean, he can adapt a name. Maybe he was there with Vlad the impaler
@@A_Stereotypical_Hereticthat actually wasn’t his name Dracula means son of the dragon, it was a nickname since his dad was dracul meaning the dragon, also a nickname since
Dracula means "son of the dragon" and is the name of a real dude who actually objectively existed. It's a play of his father's epithet, Dracul, which came from his involvement in the brotherhood of the dragon. He was also called Tepes, "the impaler," but Dracula is something he actually called himself based on surviving records.
It obviously has absolutely nothing to do with Cain. Although, fictionally, both have been interpreted as vampires. The difference is, Cain is entirely fictional, while Vlad was a real dude, he just wasn't a vampire. Still a monster, though.
@@princessmaly Vlad the impaler and Cain are one and the same person. He went from being hiding his sin to showing it off as the impaler
You’ve got it wrong. They also had twin sisters, and Jacob was supposed to marry Cain’s twin sister, while Cain was to marry Abel’s twin sister. However, Cain preferred to marry his own twin sister because he found her more beautiful. Additionally, both sisters loved Abel more, often praising him and following him around. This jealousy Cain felt toward Abel stemmed not only from the Creator’s favor but also from Abel’s popularity among their peers.
Cain was always dirty and frustrated from the hard labor of farming, while Abel stayed clean by merely tending to his sheep. Abel would often let his sheep graze on the crops Cain worked hard to grow, which only fueled Cain's resentment toward him. Their arguments were constant. As the older brother, Cain expected more respect, so when the Creator favored Abel’s offering over his, it became the tipping point that led him to eliminate his competition.
The Creator marked Cain to protect him from being killed by other men, indicating that Adam and Eve were not the only humans around. This mark did not mean he would live forever but rather that no one was allowed to kill him except the Creator. Afterward, Cain kidnapped his twin sister and went on to build the first city of mankind, where he ruled for a thousand years. Ultimately, he was killed by his own son Shem, who, while hunting and blind, mistook his father for a deer and shot him with an arrow through his head, leading to Cain’s demise.
No, because Jacob lived thousands of years after Cain and Abel - and Shem was the son of Noah, not of Cain.
@@KateGladstone There is not only one Shem like there was only not one Noah. Those were names used afterwards in various times. Cain had a son called Shem who was blind. Also Noah named one of his son Shem.

Im currently writing a novel with Cain as the main character. In the book i interpret his mark as a curse of immortality, and he's lived throughout all human history, and now its the Tribulation and hes wandering the post apocalyptic wasteland
Something that is a tad bit spooky about this Biblical story is that Cain was afraid of being killed by anyone who came across him. If Adam, Eve, and Cain sans Abel were the only human beings at the moment of the deed, who is he talking about? Is he afraid of his father? His mother? He went to the region called Nod, and found a wife. He then had children, who had children, and more children, even more, and then some more. Then Eve bore another son, who was Seth.
Of course if we go back to Chapter 1 of Genesis, we see how the world was created by God and then on the sixth day, humans were created in his image and likeness as man and woman. Then Chapter 2 talks about how Adam was created and then Eve was created from him. If you believe that Chapter 2 is a redundancy then Adam and Eve were the first two that everyone else came from. However there is a possibility that Chapter 2 is NOT redundant. Which would explain why there is people in Nod when Cain goes there.
No there wasn't just Adam Eve and Cain. Scriptures says Adam and Eve had other children.

@blikboijohnson4968 well they didn't die that day, they died hundreds of years later...so there's that. And to people who live in absolute knowledge that paradise exists, yes immortality on earth would be a punishment. Especially when no one you know or love has it as well.

@@A_Stereotypical_HereticAlthough I agree with the latter to a degree that would be torture definitely but other than Yeshua there are only 2 people spoken of in the Bible that blatantly didn't die Enoch and Elijah and possibly 2 others depending on one's own interpretations but Adam did die the same day he hate the fruit at the age of 930 as God stated he would because 1000 years to us is like a day to God so in the time Adam died it was in less than a day for God still
Adam and Eve actually did die that same day, but the 1000 years as a day has nothing to do with it. That is in reference to The Most High being outside of and unaffected by time.
No, he's dead. His real Father is still running the show.
Im writing a spiritual warfare graphic novel called kain, all built around the idea of humans freedom of free will and the choices we make and the consequences that come from it. Its all about cause and effect from right, wrong, black and white (sin and holy) and then the grey (free will). Im still in pre production and with this video helped me a few story ideas 💡
I think books like Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles give a very interesting peak into what immortality would actually be like. For a few hundred years there would probably be no problems mentally. But after millennia it would definitely effect your psyche. In her novels it wasn't uncommon to have vampires just walk out into the sun after around 500 years. The originals even went into a kind of slumber or hibernation after a long period of time. Even Lestat himself hid away until he got to the modern era.
He started the rule of immortals. He's affiliated with the fallen and always has been 👈
Yes Cain is the original Nephilim, just as Lucifer is the original fallen son of God to mate with the original daughter of man or Adam, who of course was Eve.
@kendbrowns agreed mate 👍
Could Cain be the Legendary wandering jew?
No that's the jew who laughed at Jesus on the cross
I thought of that too, But the problem with this theory is that the wandering jew was cursed character made up to stir antisemitism for he was cursed as punishment for jews allegedly being partly responsible for the death of Jesus. So the wandering jew was kinda cursed on behalf of all jews
Also, IMO the real story of judaism at the earliest starts from Abraham and maybe fully just after Jacob since the 12 tribes of Israel are considered to be founded on the 12 sons of Jacob. I mean would we consider Adam and Eve as jews? Probably not and so then naturally Cain and Able wouldn't be considered jews, but rather 1st people created by God
After reading Genesis a few times now, I can't conclude that he's still walking the Earth. If we are to assume Cain was made immortal due to his curse, that would make the flood incredibly painful. Months passing underwater with water in your lungs, unable to die, sounds extremely unbearable.
when I saw that thumbnail, I was like "imagine a guy like that wandering the earth for thousands of years"
Isn't Cain supposed to be the original first vampire.
That from a game white wolf
No, that apparently was the fate of Lilith, Adam's first wife
@MrDryfield we are talking about the something else where in a game white wolf set Cain up as the first vampire
The Book of Nod
Maybe Cain and his offsping are the one's we now days call Bigfoot or Sasquatch?
Sorry, that’s my uncle.
The idea from Vampire the Masquerade is fascinating, as punishment for what he did it was Cain cursed with immortality and to walk around the earth , being unable to grow and consume normal sustenance, becoming the first Vampire and creator of all Vampire Bloodlines , the original Bloodfather
Rumor has it, Cain decided to be a youtube blogger and doing some historical postings.... 😮
The foundation has him contained right?
There is a lot of Christian references in the SCP universe and I don't know why.
Because they're fun and easy to make entertaining
If there was only 3 people in the world , how did Cain find his wife ? And who is the parents of his wife ?
I've always said, Eden was where God made the FIRST Man according to the scripture. But it never said Adam was the ONLY Man God Created nor that Eden was the only Garden they were made in. Perhaps the other Gardens are where other religions sprang from due to having a different relationship with their creator.
Adam and Eve.
The bible never states that there were only 3 people in the world at that point. Even if people want to believe that Adam and Eve were the only humans that were directly created by god and every other human is a descendant of them, it nowhere says that cain and able were their first children.
They allegedly lived for hundreds of years back then, a lot of time to make many children and considering that Cain was afraid that other people that see him would want to hurt him or that he found his wife and later founded a city in a different land, it all implies there were already a lot of other people in the world.
The genealogy/lineage of humans the bible lists is only so the Israelites could trace back their own line of ancestors back to Adam and Eve, it never claims to be a complete list of all humans on earth.
The region was very populated with people at that time. Genesis I tells us this.
Religion is a stupid contradiction. That's the straight answer. Twisting words around to suit themselves.
This is a click bait video for non Bible readers.
There’s a fantastic comic book series about Cain roaming the earth as a cursed immortal seeking death, which always eludes him. It’s called “The Goddamned” and I highly recommend it
Love ve this channel
Cain was the original vampire according to a vampire roleplaying game.
Which one???
@@caliversal Vampire: The Masquerade.
The movie 'He Never Died' centers around an immortal Cain, definitely worth watching.
Or that he (the man in the movie) is a fallen angel. The scars on his back suggest he once had wings.
Not at all. It was wildly and poorly researched as well as sacrilegious. I like Henry Rollins but that movie was horrible.
