I am wondering how many people made it to the Promised Land originally?

Earl,

Amen, Thanks Earl

If you carefully read Genesis, you'll see that after Cain, Abel and Seth; Eve had more children.

I get lots of info from reading Geneology lists in the Bible. You can Google charts of BIBLE Geneology that you can look at.

Jesus's Geneology is really interesting if you know where the Bible speaks about some of his ancestors. Rehab was a prostitute. Ruth had been a Moabite priestess who assisted with child sacrifice. Very interesting.

S Spencer, Yes eve was the first of all living in the flesh, Christ is the first of all living the Spirit.

There are no races, sir. God has only created one race. The human race. God has created all nations to on earth from one blood. The blood of Adam.

Walt, may CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding.

Man didn't start with eve; man started with Christ. Adam was just a shadow of the TRUE FIRST MAN CREATED.

Revelation 3:14 .... the faithful and true witness, THE BEGINNING OF THE CREATION OF GOD...

The true witness is Christ.

Revelation 1:5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness....

Revelation 1:8 I am Alpha and Omega, the BEGINNING and the ENDING....

Jesus was the first man created; and when HIS WORKS are finished, He will be the LAST MAN created.

Psalms 104:30 Thou sendest forth thy spirit, and THEY ARE CREATED; and thou renewest the face of the earth.

Psalms 102:18 This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people which SHALL BE CREATED shall praise the Lord.

Romans 8:29 For whom he (GOD) did foreknow (ALL CREATION), he also did predestinate to be CONFORMED TO THE IMAGE OF HIS SON, that he (THE SON) might be the firstborn (FIRST MAN OF CREATION) among many brethren (LAST MAN OF CREATION).

S Spencer's comment on 2021-04-23 12:03:55:

Hi Walt.

Yes, no reason to believe otherwise.

Genesis 3:20 (KJV) And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of "" ALL living.""

Walt's comment on 2021-04-23 10:14:42:

Did all man kind/all races of man start with Eve?

Eurvin Jackson's comment on 2014-08-13 13:05:39:

Gen 3 20 And the man called his wife 's name Eve because she was the mother of all living. Now was is past tense meaning she was already a mother, before Gen 4 1.

Until now I have never seen where it shows chain had sisters an brothers other than able an it says he went to the land of nod an took a wife where did her people come from

RALPH M. WATERS's comment on 2010-12-30 09:46:20:

I have gotten a man from the LORD.

This does not mean CAIN was the only child at the time. He could have already had SISTERS and brothers, He just was probably more favored (if any other males were born at that time) But definately He could have already had sisters before his birth.
