Berean Strong's Lexicon Kain: Cain Original Word: Καϊν Word Origin: Of Hebrew origin (קַיִן, H7014) Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: H7014 (קַיִן, Qayin) Usage: The name "Cain" is used in the New Testament to refer to the firstborn son of Adam and Eve, known for committing the first murder by killing his brother Abel. The name is often associated with themes of sin, jealousy, and the consequences of disobedience to God. Cultural and Historical Background: In the biblical narrative, Cain is a farmer who becomes envious of his brother Abel, a shepherd, because God favors Abel's offering over his own. This leads to the first act of murder recorded in the Bible. Cain's account is foundational in Judeo-Christian teachings about sin, human nature, and the need for redemption. The account of Cain and Abel is found in Genesis 4, which sets the stage for understanding the fallen state of humanity and the need for divine grace.
