In Part 1 of Episode 2, we begin our discussion of Cain and Abel by going back to where the story truly starts: Genesis 3.

Many people view Cain and Abel as an isolated story about two brothers, but the Bible presents it as part of a much larger narrative. Before there was murder, there was deception. Before there was violence between brothers, there was a fracture in humanity's relationship with God.

In this conversation, we discuss the importance of Genesis, the progression of sin throughout the opening chapters of Scripture, the influence of family environments, and how the consequences of the Fall affected every human relationship that followed.

Scriptures Discussed:

  • Genesis 2–4
  • Deuteronomy
  • Proverbs

This episode lays the foundation for understanding not only Cain and Abel, but the broader patterns of family dysfunction that continue throughout the Bible and in families today.
