In Hebrew, Nod means wandering. The confusion in Genesis evolves from two separate and distinct writings being fused together to support monotheism. There are two sources at play, in Genesis 1:1-2:3 the source is Mesopotamian mythology and in Genesis 2:4-24 this writing is Yahwastic. Jews and Christians like not to accept the reality that the story isn't original and this is is taken from many sources predating Hebrews. This pattern of mixing two stories to fit a particular dogma continues and creates contradictions. Such as the use of Elohim which is plural for God. Also the current mixing isn't as old as people think, by the time it as written Buddha had already lived and died. Remember, in the Yahwaistic mixing that Yawah isn't a God for ALL people, but rather a God for one tribe. So, it is safe to assume that some other God of pantheism which directs half of the tex did a little human making as well. Also fits the notion that the Jewish people are not like the rest, completely separate and different even if Cain had to go find a goy in Nod. And in the Land of Nod, Cain and his wife bore Enoch....the most fascinating character in OT. Enoch was taken directly to heaven without passing through death, wrote fascinating books revealing the heavenly realms. Then, Enoch's books were omitted from the Canon and he became merely some dude on the line, grandaddy to Noah.
Yeshua Himself seemed to have given us a hint: Matthew 15:23-24 (NKJV) (22) And behold, a woman of Canaan came from that region and cried out to Him, saying, “Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David! My daughter is severely demon-possessed.” (23) But He answered her not a word. And His disciples came and urged Him, saying, “Send her away, for she cries out after us.” (24) But He answered and said, “I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”
Finishing up the selection: Then she came and worshiped Him, saying, "Lord, help me!" But He answered and said, "It is not good to take the children's bread and throw it to the little dogs." And she said, "Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters' table." Then Jesus answered and said to her, "O woman, great is your faith! Let it be to you as you desire." And her daughter was healed from that very hour. - Matthew 15:21-28
Thanks for posting the rest of the story.
