3786 — Cain's Wife, Gen. 4: 16, 17

Where did Cain get his wife, since we do not read of Cain being married before?
Cain married his sister, one of Adam's daughters. The record is not in consecutive order. There may have been many years from the time that Cain was sent out into the land of wandering to the time that he took his wife, and during these years there were other daughters born to Adam, of whom Cain evidently took one for a wife. This seems to be a reasonable supposition.
