Read Genesis 4
Tragedy rocked the first family. Losing a child. Murder. Jealousy. Banishment and guilt. Forgiveness and protection from God. A new start. The communities were expanding and in verse 26 we read that men began to call on the name of the LORD.
Agriculture, farming, village life, and governments were set up and developed as people emerged from the days of nomadic hunting and gathering. With knowledge and expansion came greater responsibility and complex problems. The rebellion from trusting God was there in every heart and succeeding generation even though they sought a relationship with God.
