Note sull'episodio
We cannot pass over this quickly. It’s just so profound. Here is revealed a beautiful aspect of our God’s character. As holy and just, He issued a judgment upon Cain, but note the judgment. This is not “eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth”. That’s part of the Mosaic law that came later. Here, was God’s personal judgment upon an individual apart from the law. In it, we should note that the judgment was based upon the individual’s awareness of God’s commands.
