I don't think that the Bible gives us enough information to really know

where she came from. But most tend to theorize that he married one of his

sisters.

Where did noah's sons sons got there wives from if cain taking his sister to wife is a theory ? :lightbulb2:

 

Noah's sons already had wives before the flood.  Their wives were with them in the ark.

 

Noah sons shem etc had sons.  who got there wives from where hence Noah sons sons 

 

What makes you think they only had sons?

In many instances the Bible mentions all the sons and not daughters in the lineage.

i was focussing on the sons getting wives  or their cousins thus the wives would have come from their brothers

If Adam and Eve were the only humans God made, then where did Cain get his wife from?

 

Gen 4:1 Now Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore Cain, saying, "I have gotten a man with the help of the LORD." 

Gen 4:2 And again, she bore his brother Abel. Now Abel was a keeper of sheep, and Cain a worker of the ground. 

 

Gen 4:16 Then Cain went away from the presence of the LORD and settled in the land of Nod, [fn] east of Eden. 

Gen 4:17 Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and bore Enoch. When he built a city, he called the name of the city after the name of his son, Enoch.

 

4:16) Nod means wandering

 

Thank you.

The Sons

And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, Genesis 6:1

Of Adam

which was the son of Adam, which was the son of God. Luke 3:38(c-d)

And The Daughters Of Eve

That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. Genesis 6:2

This is a bit confusing to me.

6:1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,

6:2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.

6:3 And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.

6:4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.

Your post implies that the "sons of God" from Genesis are Adam. The verse you quote from Luke is the tail end of the complete recounting of Joseph's lineage, which goes from 3:23-38. Reading the entire passage, the implication with it ending in "Adam, which was the son of God" seems to be that it serves only to indicate which Adam is being referenced, essentially just drawing the recounting to a formal close. In any case, even if we take all instances of "son of God" in the Old Testament to refer to Adam, using the context of a verse from the New Testament, this presents a new choice of two problematic alternatives: Genesis 6:2 and 6:4 reference "sons of God"; if we are taking the phrase to mean "person directly created by God alone" and "son/daughter of man" to refer to "person created through human reproduction," then wouldn't there either have to be more than one man (and presumably, woman) created directly by God along with Adam (although not necessarily at the same time), or the appellation "son of God" in Luke bearing a meaning different from the one in Genesis?

Also, Genesis 6:4 talks about "giants in the earth" and relates them to the activities of "the sons of God" in a way that seems to indicate that the giants and the sons of God are not the same entities. It also states that the offspring of the sons of God and daughters of men "became mighty men which were of old, men of renown." What does this verse mean? The word choice is very peculiar.

He said they were the first people he created not the only ones

Where would other people have come from if God didn't create them?  The Bible states that man was created in the image of God.  I would also remind you that if there were other people on the earth, and they were not created by God and weren't descendants of Adam and Eve, that would mean they don't necessarily have a sin nature.
