That warning is for the prophecy in Revelation. The canon of the Bible was not yet codified then. I do not imply that means it's open season on the rest of the Bible.

I'm sure God knows what He is doing with His creation. May I suggest that when scripture is silent, we should not add "our understanding" to "fill in the blanks". 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not clearly spelled out. There is the usual question posed: "Where did Cain get his wife?". Some will argue that it was a close relative, but the narrative does not really speak to that particularly strongly and is just speculation. Archaeology, of course, would indicate that there were many people in the world already at the usual YEC age of the world of some 6000 years BP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam was the first man and Eve was the first women. We are All decended from Adam and Eve. In that we are all part of the same human family then yes we are inbred, but No we are not because from a perfect man and women it takes a great many generations for genetic errors to build up and cause the sort of problems inbreeding causes. In the bible the command against marrying a close relative only appears after the Israelites had left Egypt. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Scripture certainly seems to indicate that there was an area to the east of Adam and Eve and their family that was populated by other humans in Genesis 4. If we are to take God's Word in a literal fashion, Adam and Eve did not have other children until after Cain left for the land of Nod. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we are in agreement that there were other people outside of Eden that were contemporaries of Adam and Eve? I'm not entirely following what you are trying to say.
