A butcher killed by a farmer(some idea about the Bible) There has been about seven years since I got my first Bible. One of my favorite chapters is Genesis and I've read this part several times. Oddly enough, I find a little story which interests me a lot. this story is something about a butcher who was killed by his brother, a farmer, and the murderer finally was protected by the Lord. "Abel was a keeper of sheep and Cain a worker of the ground." "Cain brought to the Lord an offering of the fruit of the ground and Abel also brought of the first born of his flock and of their fat portions. And the Lord had regard for Abel and his offering, but for Cain and his offering he had no regard." (Genesis 4:3&4&5) Then, we all know, Cain was angry and killed his brother Abel. God cursed Cain to be a fugitive and wanderer. The story went in an old way until now, what makes me confused is what happened then. Cain complained to the Lord that he was over-punished. He felt anxious that whoever finds him would kill him. "If anyone kills Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the Lord put a mark on Cain, lest any who found him should attack him. (Genesis 4:15) At the end of this part, Cain was blessed. Anyone kills him would be taken reveng. He settled in the land of Nod, had sons and grandchildren, well, we can read his histroy in the Book. That's the life of a murderer. However, the honest Abel, I've not found any else information in Book, about him nor about his generations. Able, he died and disappeared. Shall we be a happy Cain or a poor Abel? The former was jealous and guilty, but he had a happy ending. The latter was a humble servant of God, but he disappeared. Which shall we be?
