Just When You Thought It Couldn't Get Worse

For the Thursday Night Group study on March 1

Read Genesis 4 (yes, all of it; please try and stay awake for the middle part)

Use this link to read about the word used in verse 26 as "began", as in "...men began to call upon the name of the LORD."  Or if you have the Strong's Concordance, it's Hebrew word 2490.

Strong's Concordance

Consider:  How has the downward spiral of humanity begun and continued in this passage?  And yet, where is there hope?

• Adam and Eve didn't really repent for their meal, what about Cain?
• How does God show Cain mercy?  How does that effect his descendants?
• What seems strange to you about Lemmech's record?
• What clues are there in this chapter to Adam & Eve's faith? (at least 4?)
• What strikes you as strange and confusing about this passage?

That should be enough to chew on for the next several days.  I look forward to Thursday!

Blessings!
