From Urantia Wiki, the encyclopedia of The Urantia Book
Cain was the son of Eva and Cano, a man of the Nodite race; he had a natural bellicose inheritance 76:2.4
he was born before the Adamic caravan reached the second garden 76:0.2
he was two years older than Abel, who was the first son of Adam and Eve in the second garden. Cain chose to dedicate himself to agriculture (76:2.1,5)
he had always defied family discipline and despised Adam's religion 76:2.8
In the Urantia Book
He slew Abel (76:2.4-5)
- because of that act he finally repented and was inhabited by an Adjuster 76:2.8
- Adam and Eve encouraged him to leave the second garden 76:2.7
He went to the land of Nod for a wife (74:8.8) (148:4.7)
He married Remona; his first son was Enoch (76:2.9)
- the expression avenged seven times was applied to Cain, because his tribal mark was considered to be that of the tribe that would take revenge up to seven times on whoever killed him 159:1.7
- the tribal mark was vital in the days of Cain, as it ensured that someone could survive 68:1.2
