Cain's Punishment
The ground was cursed the first time as a result of Adam's sin. It was cursed a second time for Cain's sin. Adam was driven out of Eden for his sin, and Cain is driven out from his home as a result of his sin.
But who was Cain afraid of in verse 14 of Genesis Chapter 1? Animals? Perhaps. But what about other people, is it possible there are others?
In Genesis 5:3 we read that Adam had Seth at 130 years of age. After Seth Adam lived 800 years longer having more "sons and daughters."
We don't have a clear picture of who was born and when, so it is possible that Cain was fearful of siblings (either present, or to come) who would attempt to take his life for what he had done.
