It was at an auspicious moment that the first child came into the world, in the natural way–not from the dust of the earth and not from a rib, but from a mother and father and a Divine partner. And in less than ten verses after his birth, the child that would become a man rises up kills his brother. Indeed, just as “sin crouches at the door\u201d (4:7) in the words of God to Cain, the Bible places the unbearable sin at the door of the Book of Genesis. And alongside Cain’s sin there is another killing in our chapter. The Bible is silent about the details of the act, and only Lamech’s boastful song attests to what happened and leaves us in the dark: \u201cAdah and Zillah, hear my voice: O wives of Lamech, give ear to my speech. I have slain a man for wounding me, and a lad for bruising me\u201d (4:23).<\/span><\/p>\n

The story of Cain and his brother Abel will pave \u00a0the way for the siblings who follow him in the book – Isaac and Ishmael, Jacob and Esau, Rachel and Leah, Joseph and his brothers. All of these are brothers and sisters whose relationships are tainted between them. \u00a0A light of hope will emerge at the end of the book when the sons of Jacob will extricate themselves on behalf of Benjamin, and a great light will shine at the beginning of the Book of Exodus: Moses the child in the ark, and his sister Miriam standing from afar; and Moses the man goes at the command of God to Pharaoh and with Moses is his brother Aaron. Brotherly hatred, we learn, is not a decree of fate.<\/span><\/p>\n","image":{"ID":85040,"id":85040,"title":"ps69-other
