What happened to the daughters of Adam and Eve, and why does the Bible tell us almost nothing about them?
Most people know the stories of Cain, Abel, and Seth, but Genesis also says that Adam had “other sons and daughters.” Who were these daughters? How many were there? Who did they marry? And what role did they play in the earliest generations of humanity?
In this Bible documentary, we explore the little-told story of the daughters of Adam and Eve, what the Book of Genesis actually says about them, and what later Jewish and Christian traditions claimed about the first human family.
We examine Genesis 4 and Genesis 5, the descendants of Adam, the family of Cain, the line of Seth, and the difficult question of how the earliest human population grew if Adam and Eve were the first family.
Were the wives of Cain and Seth daughters of Adam and Eve? Did Adam and Eve have many children whose names were never recorded? Why does Scripture focus on only a few members of the first family?
We also look carefully at later traditions that give names and stories to the daughters of Adam and Eve, while separating those traditions from what the Bible itself actually states.
From Eden to Cain, Abel, Seth, the Land of Nod, and the generations before Noah’s Flood, this is the little-told story of the daughters of Adam and Eve — and what may have happened to them.
