Cain is a Biblical figure in the Book of Genesis within Abrahamic religions. He is the older twin brother of Abel and the son of Adam and Eve, the first couple within the Biblical tale. He was a farmer who gave an offering of his crops to God with which God was not pleased and favored Abel's over Cain. Out of jealousy he then killed his brother, which lead to the punishment as the curse and mark of Cain. He had various offsprings starting with Enoch including Lamech. His lineage would later be wiped out after the Flood within the narrative.

The narrative never explicitly states Cain's motive for murdering his brother, nor Yahweh's reason for rejecting Cain's sacrifice, nor details on the identity of Cain's wife. Some traditional interpretations consider Cain to be the originator of evil, violence, or greed. According to Genesis, Cain was the first human born and the first murderer.
