Male and female he created them. God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish and the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”
—Genesis 1:27–28
What
Genesis records and what is does not record is puzzling, simply because
if Cain and his progeny were indeed thoroughly corrupted, why would
Scripture have diligently recorded for all time their
accomplishments? Why wouldn’t Scripture only have focused on the
righteous accomplishments of Seth’s progeny? Moreover, why would
Scripture not have diligently recorded the iniquitous exploits of Cain’s
posterity as a matter of theological and historical record for all
generations to contemplate? We do not find the answers to these puzzling
questions in the biblical text.
Biblically undocumented transgressions by Cain’s
descendants are then summarily drafted in standard Christian theology as
the source for evil and violence. And thus they are seen as willing
partners, who helped spawn the Nephilim race of giants-via the
copulation of the degenerate daughters of Cain with the enlightened sons
of Seth. But since Genesis does not explicitly cite this either, this
conclusion is nothing more than conjecture, unless other sources can
substantiate it.
Indeed, there are other sources that we can look to in
establishing that Cain’s progeny were a corrupt and vile branch of
Adam’s posterity, who were willing participants in violating the sacred
laws of creation. We can also find out just who the sons of God were.
Let us begin with summarizing Genesis’s account of the
posterity of Cain. Cain bore a son, Enoch, and Cain named the city he
built after him. Enoch bore Irad, who bore Mehujael, who bore Methushal,
who was the father of Lamech. Lamech married two women, Adah and
Zillah, and was thereby pronounced the first polygamist, a violation of
the law that the Nephilim would later prize as a cornerstone of their
rebellious culture. Adah gave birth to Jabal, the first nomad who raised
livestock. Adah also gave birth to another son, Jubal, the first to
create the art of music. The second wife, Zillah, bore one son,
Tubal-Cain, who was credited with inventing smithcraft. Zillah also bore
a daughter named Naamah, but Genesis does not accredit Naamah with
inventing anything.
The account of Cain’s progeny ends with Lamech, stating he
killed a man for wounding him, and that if his ancestor Cain was
sentenced to suffer seven times over, then he would be judged to suffer
seventy-seven times over.
Although this account does provide some transgressions,
such as the polygamy of Lamech and the killing of a man by Lamech,
compounded by the sin of murder by Lamech’s ancestor Cain, it does not
establish requisite groundwork for the level of violence and corruption
compiled by the tenth generation, particularly when one considers the
sons and daughters of Lamech form the sixth generation. And as I have
already noted, the erosion of righteousness took hold during the first
seven generations, when it gripped the posterity of Seth, corrupting the
righteous branch almost completely by the tenth generation. Therefore,
something more must have been taking place in the lineage of Cain to so
corrupt his posterity, in addition to crossing the genealogical branches
of Cain and Seth, or another outside source must have been at work as
the source of this corruption. Cain was thought to have traveled over
many countries with his wife, finally establishing a city he named Nod,
where he and his wife settled and had children.
Louis Ginzberg, author of Legends of the Bible, notes that
Cain built monuments to immortalize his name, as well as sixty cities,
all with walls, thereby suggesting military
fortresses. Josephus interjects that Cain did not accept judgment or
punishment from God for murdering Abel. Cain did not repent but rather
increased his transgressions and wickedness, procuring everything for
his own pleasure, even though it obliged him to be injurious to his
neighbors. Cain became wealthy through plundering his neighbors with
violence and robbing them of all that he could pillage. Cain further
urged his followers to do the same; he became a great leader of men,
leading them into wickedness. Who were these plundering hordes led by Cain? Where did they come from?
Josephus wrote that Cain introduced weights and measures
into the world, where before the introduction of this system, humankind
lived innocently and generously. Cain led humans from innocence into
cunning craftiness, where all things were weighed and measured. He
established boundaries for all lands and established many cities with
fortified walls, naming one Enoch after his eldest son. Ginzberg
suggests that Cain sinned to secure his own pleasure, even though he
severely injured his neighbors. Cain was likely one of the proponents
for violence and war in the antediluvian world. Josephus and Ginzberg
both label Cain as the father of evil, violence, and corruption. These
accounts stray significantly from the Genesis account, where Cain was
not overtly charged with corrupting the antediluvian world. It
was implied so subtly that one may wish to look closer at Cain for
impropriety. With Cain planting these kinds of seeds in just the second
generation, it is not difficult to conceive the entire antediluvian
world, other than the lineage of Seth, being totally corrupted by the
sixth generation, with Seth’s posterity being completely corrupted by
Cain’s descendants from the seventh to the tenth generations and after
the Nephilim incident. With the arrival of Lamech, however,
antediluvian life became interesting. Josephus recorded, just as the
author of Genesis recorded, that Lamech became the first recorded
polygamist, marrying both Zillah and Adah. Altogether, they procreated
seventy-seven children. Lamech was also noted as being very skilled in
the art of divine revelation. Of those seventy-seven children, three were noteworthy by Josephus’s standards.
Jubal, son of Adah, specialized in music, inventing
musical instruments. Tubal-Cain, son of Zillah, exceeded all other men
in strength and excelled in the martial arts, foreshadowing
characteristics of the Nephilim. Josephus noted Tubal-Cain as procuring
the pleasures of the body through his natural attributes, again
foreshadowing another characteristic of the Nephilim. No doubt,
Tubal-Cain also inherited and embellished all the sins and corruption of
his forefather Cain, as witnessed by his name. Josephus then credits
Tubal-Cain with inventing the art of manufacturing brass. Nelson’s
Bible Dictionary defines Cain as meaning “a metal worker,” thereby
attributing Tubal to being his first name, and Cain denoting his
expertise, just as his forefather must have been some form of
metalworker or smith. The third distinguished progeny was the daughter
of Zillah, Naamah, meaning “pleasant.”16 Josephus
does not credit anything special to Naamah, but again, to be noted in
the Bible, one must be worthy of either good or evil.
Josephus went on to strike deep into the character of
Cain’s posterity: Even while Adam was still alive, it came to pass that
the posterity of Cain became exceedingly wicked, everyone successfully
dying, one after another, more wicked than the former. They were
intolerable in war, and vehement in robberies; and if anyone was slow to
murder people, yet was he bold in his immoral behavior, in acting
unjustly, and doing injuries for gain.
They were, indeed, their father’s sons and daughters.
Corroborating evidence from non-Biblical sources more than fills in the
blanks left by Genesis. Josephus described Cain’s posterity as
despicable to the bone—a vile branch that degenerated into more iniquity
with each passing generation.
By the sixth generation, Cain’s rebellious posterity was a
human cesspool, looking to spawn a great evil into the antediluvian
world. And of course, they succeeded. But before we continue with that,
it is time to enter the Freemasonry Brotherhood and its legends into the
mystery.
The Dowland Manuscript of the Legend of the Craft lists
the Seven Liberal Sciences: “Grammere” to teach humankind to both speak
and write truly; “Rhethoricke” to teach humankind to speak in subtle
terms; “Dialectyke” to teach humankind to discern between truth and
falsehoods; “Arithmeticke” to teach humankind to compute all manner of
numbers; “Geometrie” to teach humankind to measure the earth and all
things (this is the Science of Masonry); “Musicke” to teach humankind
song and the language of musical instruments; and finally, “Astronomye”
to teach humankind the course of the planets and stars.18 Rhetoric’s original state was the art of persuasion, while grammar was the molding and education of men through reading.
Note how several of these sciences were unexplainably credited to Lamech’s children in Genesis and Josephus.
