Cain and Abel have long been understood as the first and second sons of Adam and Eve in the religions of Judaism, Islam, and Christianity. Their story is told in the Bible and Torah at Genesis 4:1-16 and the Qur'an at 5:26-32. However the Greek New Testament says of Cain that "he was from the wicked one". This assertion is also found in Jewish legend, that the serpent (Hebrew nahash נחש) from the Garden of Eden was father to firstborn Cain.

  • Cain and Abel have long been understood as the first and second sons of Adam and Eve in the religions of Judaism, Islam, and Christianity. Their story is told in the Bible and Torah at Genesis 4:1-16 and the Qur'an at 5:26-32. However the Greek New Testament says of Cain that "he was from the wicked one". This assertion is also found in Jewish legend, that the serpent (Hebrew nahash נחש) from the Garden of Eden was father to firstborn Cain. In all versions, Cain is an arable farmer and his younger brother Abel is a shepherd. Cain is portrayed as sinful, committing the first murder by killing his brother, after God has rejected his offerings of produce but accepted the animal sacrifices brought by Abel. The oldest known copy of the Biblical narration is from the 1st century Dead Sea Scrolls. Cain and Abel also appear in a number of other texts, and the story is the subject of various interpretations. Abel, the first murder victim, is sometimes seen as the first martyr; while Cain, the first murderer, is sometimes seen as a progenitor of evil. A few scholars suggest the pericope may have been based on a Sumerian story representing the conflict between nomadic shepherds and settled farmers. Others think that it may refer to the days in which agriculture began to replace the ways of the hunter-gatherer. Allusions to Cain and Abel as an archetype of fratricide persist in numerous references and retellings, through medieval art and Shakespearean works up to present day fiction.
  • Kaïn (Hebreeuws voor 'speer') en Abel (soms Habel, van het Hebreeuws voor 'adem' of 'vergankelijkheid') zijn in de Tenach, de Bijbel en de Koran de twee oudste zonen van Adam en Eva. In de Koran worden ze niet met naam genoemd, maar binnen de islam worden de namen Habiel en Kabiel gebruikt.
  • Kain var Adams og Evas eldste sønn jevnført Første Mosebok. Kain drepte sin bror Abel i misundelse over, at Gud tok imot Abels offergave, men avviser Kains. Etter drapet sier Gud til Kain, at han for denne udåd skal være fredløs og flyktning, men sier samtidig, at ingen må slå Kain ihjel. Hvis noen gjør det, skal det hevnes 7 ganger. 1. Mosebok kap. 4 sier: "Og han (Gud) satte et merke på Kain, for at ingen, som møtte ham, skulle slå ham ihjel."
  • Kain i Abel - synowie Adama i Ewy. Biblijna Księga Rodzaju opowiada o tym, jak Kain zabił młodszego brata i jak został za to ukarany, podaje historię rodu Kaina (Rdz 4), a także trzeciego brata, Seta (Rdz 5). Więcej przekazów o Kainie i Ablu zawiera mitologia hebrajska, literatura apokryficzna, a także Koran.
  • Kabil (Musevi kaynaklarında Kain, Kayn, Kayin) ile Habil, Tevrat'ta, Kur'an'da ve hadislerde anlatılan kişilerden. Kabil, Âdem ve Havva'nın ilk oğlu, Habil ise ikinci oğludur. Kabil'in, kardeşi Habil'i öldürdüğüne ve tarihteki ilk katil olduğuna inanılır.
