The real answer is:\n\nNobody knows.\n\nAny other answer anyone gives you is just blind speculation.

Ruth was a Moabite woman, she decided to go with Naomi back to Naomi's kinsman who were Hebrews/Jewish She then used a Jewish custom to get married gain to another Jewish man related to her late husband.\n\nShe basically disowned her family, this is consistent with the Jewish belief of leaving the mother and father and cleaving to her husband.

No, Eve was not created with Adam.  There is the legend of Lilith, the first woman, she refused to do what Adam told her and she flew off to eventually marry Salathiel (an Angel gone bad) and they had some hellashish creature babies.  OOOOOO now the Christians are gonna jump me, they ought to check out how many of each kind of animal was on the ark, and who really killed Goliath, and were did the Sons of Anak come from if all the giants died in the flood.  Just a few inconsistencies in that great book.  But I believe in what is right, my own version, and if their versions every denomination can be "the way," then so can mine, but only for me!  Thanks man, this was fun.

If you read your bible carefully, you'll find out that Adam and Eve had a LOT more than 3 kids. Check out Genesis 5:4\n     "After he begot Seth, the days of Adam were eight hundred years; and he had sons and daughters."\n\nThis is mentioned after Cain finding his wife, but Chapter 5 isn't really a part of the timeline.. it's more a study of Adam's family, so it seems likely that Cain simply married one of his sisters.

many teachers teach that the Kenites of the Bible were the descendants of Cain. It is very possible that this is so, but it is also possible that the Kenites mentioned in the Bible are from more than one person called Cain and therefore from different tribes of Kenites. The Kenites are around today. Anyone surnamed Cain could be called a Kenite, but that would not necessarily mean they were descendants of Cain. Of course, they could possibly be descendants of Cain. It is difficult to say. Having said all of this, I still believe that the Kenites in the Bible were the descendants of Cain, the son of Adam

Adam and Eve had more children. Cain married his sister. The story of Cain and Abel was centered upon them and not the whole family. It is believed that Adam and Eve had many children who intermarried. Kinda gross to think that we all came from inbreeding.

Her name was Lilith.  I believe, but might be wrong, that it is a hebrew origin.  She was suppose to be Adams first wife, make from the earth.  She wouldn't submit or be subserviant to Adam so god cast her out of the garden of eden.  He then made eve from adams rib.  Alot of things have been said about her like she became a demon, a vampire, evil, etc.  Just go to any major search engine and look her up, the variety of legands are great reading!

Where did Cain get his wife? Adam “became father to sons and daughters.” (Genesis 5:4) So Cain took one of his sisters or perhaps one of his nieces as a wife. Later, God’s Law to the Israelites did not permit the marriage of a fleshly brother and sister.—Leviticus 18:9.\n\nOne might think that after the murder of Abel, only his guilty brother Cain and their parents, Adam and Eve, were left on the earth. However, Adam and Eve had a large family. According to Genesis 5:3, 4, Adam had a son named Seth. The account adds: “The days of Adam after his fathering Seth came to be eight hundred years. Meanwhile he became father to sons and daughters.” So Cain married his sister or perhaps one of his nieces. Since mankind was then so close to human perfection, such a marriage evidently did not pose the health risks that may imperil the offspring of such a union today.\n\nAdam was cast out of Eden into an unsubdued earth that was cursed to produce thorns and thistles, there to sweat out an existence, harvesting the bitter fruits of his sin. Outside the garden, awaiting death, Adam fathered sons and daughters, the names of only three being preserved—Cain, Abel, and Seth. To all of his children Adam passed on hereditary sin and death, since he himself was sinful.—Ge 3:23; 4:1, 2, 25.\n\nConsider, for example, the often-raised problem about Cain’s wife. At Genesis 4:1, 2 we read: “In time [Eve] gave birth to Cain and said: ‘I have produced a man with the aid of Jehovah.’ Later she again gave birth, to his brother Abel.” As is well known, Cain killed Abel; but after that, we read that Cain had a wife and children. (Genesis 4:17) If Adam and Eve had only two sons, where did Cain find his wife?\n\nThe solution lies in the fact that Adam and Eve had more than two children. According to the context, they had a large family. At Genesis 5:3 we read that Adam became father to another son named Seth and then, in the following verse, we read: “He became father to sons and daughters.” (Genesis 5:4) So Cain could have married one of his sisters or even one of his nieces. At that early stage of human history, when mankind was so close to perfection, such a marriage evidently did not pose the risks for the children of the union that it would today.\n\n\nThough no word for cousin is found in the Hebrew Scriptures, this relationship is there indicated by expressions such as “the sons of . . . Aaron’s uncle,” “the son of his uncle.” (Le 10:4; 25:49) Marriages to cousins are reported: Jacob and Rachel, and the daughters of Zelophehad. (Ge 28:2; 29:10-12; Nu 36:11) Such marriages to cousins were not included in the Mosaic prohibitions against incest. (Le 18:8-16) Today civil laws are at variance on this matter; some states and nations allow cousins to marry, others forbid it.

Genesis tells us that Adam and Eve had two sons: Cain and Abel. Cain killed Abel, was exiled by God, and then in Genesis 4:17 we read that Cain had relations with his wife. Where did Cain get his wife? The answer is simple:  Cain married either his sister or a niece. \n     In Genesis 5:4 we see that Adam had other sons and daughters.\n\n"This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day when God created man, He made him in the likeness of God. He created them male and female, and He blessed them and named them Man in the day when they were created. When Adam had lived one hundred and thirty years, he became the father of a son in his own likeness, according to his image, and named him Seth. Then the days of Adam after he became the father of Seth were eight hundred years, and he had other sons and daughters. So all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years, and he died," (Gen. 5:1-5).\n\n      Since Adam lived several hundred years, having lots of children was not a problem. The Genesis account does not tell us about the order of the births nor does it tell us how old they were. By having many children it is certainly possible that there were many women around. This would mean that Cain married either a sister or a niece or some other relation. Of course at this point, the question of inbreeding is raised. But it is not a problem early on in the human race because the genetic line was so pure. Therefore, the prohibition against incest was not proclaimed until much much later (Lev. 18:6-18).\n\nI hope this helps answer your question.

The Bible says Adam was the first man ... not the ONLY man.  We just hear so much about Adam because he was the first guy on the block.  It wouldn't make any sense to make billions of type of animals and only 2 humans.  (3 if you count Lilith ... Judaism says Adam had a wife before Eve, but they fought about who got to be on top during sex ... do God made Eve, a more docile wife for Adam)\n\nThere were other humans that God made, we just don't hear about them.  Cain married one of these other people.

You need to remember that Adam and Eve lived for years, Adam was 930 years old when he died and they had many children, who must have married among themselves, and quickly develoed into a large population. After a hundred years or so, there would have been considerably sized cities growing up. The Bible does not say that everything that happened to Cain happened to him when he was young. After 400 years he could have been living in a city of several thousand people.

You are probably thinking of the genetic studies that concluded that the most recent human common matrilineal ancestor was a woman in Africa about 150,000 years ago.  Those studies examined mitochondrial DNA from various sample groups existing today.  Those studies are valid, but only demonstrate what they purport to: everyone alive today is descended from a woman in Africa (almost certainly black) who lived about 150,000 years ago and there is no other more recent woman from whom everyone is descended.\n\nThat does not mean she was the first human or even the first human female.  She lived in a group, all of whom were human.  She had a mother and father, both of whom were human.\n\nIt is never going to be possible to say any particular person was the first human.  The transformation from homo erectus to homo sapiens took a very long time and occurred very gradually.  They sort of fade into one another.  You can't single out any one point in the process and say Here!  Here is where it happened!

I'm not really sure, but I can tell you who Lilith was.\nAccording to some Christian anpertains groups, LilithindepeDeityly the first wife of Adam before Eve. She was independant and did not follow God's will and was cast out.\n\nSome other groups believe her to be an angel. while others (and this is what I feel it pretains to) see lilith as a diety who invades the dreams of men. some say she fills them with nightmares, while some believe she fills their dreams with sex and lustful thought. She at times can cause a man to become unfaithful, and can manifest herself and make love to a man while he is in bed. \n\nHope this helps.
