Introduction
That God wanted to express His dominion, sovereignty, glory, wisdom, and power through the family becomes evident at the outset in the Genesis account of creation and its utter fall into sin.
God made the first human family when He joined the first Man, Adam, to the first woman, Eve, who He specially created from the rib of the first Man.
In God’s plan, all subsequent men and woman would be born from these first two parents, live under their supervision, and become adults like their parents who also bear the image of God and are responsible to represent Him in their families, continuing to carry out God’s mandates for creation.
But now mankind must do this in their fallen state and living under God’s curse on man’s dominion.
Let’s look at Genesis 4 and to see the first family in action after the fall in Genesis 3.

C. Eve bore his brother Abel.
D. The two sons chose two different occupations
1. Abel was a keeper of sheep
2. Cain a worker of the ground
II.
The grown children offer to the LORD.
(v.
3-4a)
A. Cain brought an offering of the fruit of the ground (v. 3)

(v.
4a)
III.

(vs.

They witness the murder of their youngest and the exile of their firstborn.
V.
The LORD confronted Cain.
(vs.
9-10)

C. The voice of Abel’s blood is crying to me from the ground!
