A Builder of Cities

Cain's first son Enoch was ignorant and stupid, right? Not really. The Bible says Cain build a city which he called after the name of his son, Enoch. Cain was intelligent and able to build a city for his son. Notice something about Enoch. "Unto him was born Irad, and Irad begat Mehujael, and Mahujael begat Lamech. And Lamech took unto him two wives: the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah. And Adah bare Jabal: he was the father of such as dwell in tents, and of such as dwell in tents, and of such as have cattle. And his brother's name was Jabal: he was the father of all such as handle the harp and organ. And Zillah, she also bare Tubalcain, an instructor of every artificer in brass and iron: and the sister of Tubal-cain was Naamah." This is a picture of the world and the immediate descendents of the perfect pair God had created. They were not ignorant, stupid people. Adam was created perfect with intelligence -- intelligence that allowed him to name all of the animals. His offspring were such that they were able to build cities. We have described in the second, third and fourth generations, the establishment of those who dwelt in tents, and those who herded cattle. We already recognize that Cain had the ability to till the ground and Abel was one who raised animals. In addition to that, it is recorded that there were those who became proficient in musical instruments, such as the harp and organ, that others were skilled in the working of brass and iron. There were not stone age people. The evolutionary concept that man was stupid, beginning in the primitive condition and working up to his present intelligence and high technology, to the point that he now claims he is intelligent enough to replace God, is fallacy. God in the beginning created man perfect and supplied him with great abilities. Intelligent human beings were responsible for the culture and technology of ancient civilizations.
