Genesis 4:1-3 Adam made love to his wife Eve, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Cain. She said, “With the help of the Lord I... -
The passage indicates that the offering was made "In the curse of time..." Gen.4:3 So, this seemed to be an established practice offer... -
The way the passage reads, it seems that periodic offerings were the norm. What makes this different from the norm was what came of it...
