In Genesis 4 we are provided with a couple of case studies of humanity's dramatic spiral away from God's blueprint for life in the garden of Eden. Cain's distress at God's apparent disfavour opens a door for the sins of jealousy and resentment, resulting in the murder of his brother Abel. Lamech's covetousness and pride leads to his vengeful boasts. Hope is found in Jesus, descendant of Seth, who taught forgiveness and chose the path of suffering for the sake of our sin.
