Genesis 4:1-14

Summary

Jose Gonzalez led a detailed Bible study on Genesis Chapter 4, following a recap of Genesis 1-3, where attendees including Val Aviles, Rosa Medina, Selena Geiger, Blanche Hernandez, Awilda Davila, Iselin, JP, Javier Esteves, Natalia Lebron, and Carmen Ortiz were encouraged to participate and develop their own biblical connections. The central discussion focused on the offerings of Cain and Abel, God's favor toward Abel's specific offering, Cain's resulting anger, and God's warning that "sin is lurking at the door," emphasizing the human responsibility to "master" the spiritual threat. Participants, including Awilda Gonzalez and Marisol Lopez, further analyzed the nature of sin, the field's connection to the serpent's influence, Cain's subsequent murder of Abel as a failure to master sin, and the implications of Cain's exile and fear of others on the broader population outside the garden.
