CAIN AND ABEL
***
Cain envied Abel
God liked Abel’s offering
So Cain killed Abel
***
NOTE: Cain was a farmer, and his offering was the fruit of the ground. Abel was a shepherd, and his offering was the firstlings of his flock and the fat thereof. God liked Abel’s offering, but God did not like Cain’s offering. Out of envy, Cain killed Abel.
