Where did Cain get his wife?

I hope this is a question that someone may be able to answer. If possible, would you also show where in Scripture you found it? I have been racking my brain trying to figure this out. Thanks.



Peace

ya for sure Seth for one and some daughters I believe but Seth 130 years later lol whoa nellie for sure. There lived to be a ripe age back then , but I suppose as we sin in each generation, the time span keeps shortening. Cain was booted to NOD, which I believe meand wandering but it isnt a kingdome or anything, and he picked up on some incestuous relationship that brought the satan seed sorta, He was a brute for sure. but Seth went owards to bring in the David line of men, the godly men. and the beat goes on. I laugh all the time cause all my ancestors are in that line, Many David, Marys James, Seth, many religious names Hannah Jacob Sarah, John, Issac's throughout the generations, my 5th generation is loaded with these names but I know many people were named of these back then. But I know I surly am close to Jesus Christ, even as a child. well, you have a Blessed night through Jesus Christ.

The scripture says that Adam called his wife Eve because she was the mother of ALL the living. (Genesis 3:20) It would almost seem that maybe Cain married his sister. In Genesis 5:3, it says that Adam was 130 years when he begat Seth after Cain had killed Abel and was banished to roam in the desert.(Genesis 4). Adam lived in all for 930 years when he died. (Gen.) 5:3-5.) Scripture then says in the last part of that verse that he had other sons and daughters. So, it would be very likely that Cain had indeed married his sister, one of several who had probably left home and married one of their brothers. That was acceptable at that time so that the world would be populated. Hope this has helped.
