But Cain dwelt in the earth trembling,\n| Cf. Gen. 4:14 | \n2. And Cain knew Themech his wife and she\n| Gen. 4:17 | \n3. 1 Now Cain was 15 years old when he did these things; and from that time he began to build cities, until he had founded seven cities. And these are\nand the name of the fifth Iesca; the name of the sixth Celeth, and the name of the seventh Iebbath.\n4. And Cain lived after he begat Enoch 715 years and begat 3 sons and 2 daughters. And these are the names of his sons: Olad, Lizaph, Fosal; and of his daughters, Citha and Maac. And all the days of Cain were 730 years, and he died.\n5. 1 Then took Enoch a wife of the daughters of Seth, which bare him Ciram and Cuuth and Madab. But Ciram begat Matusael, and Matusael begat Lamech.\n| Gen. 4:19 | \n| Gen. 4:21 | \n| Gen. 4:22 | \n10. 3 Now Lamech said unto his two wives Ada\nand Sella: Hear my voice, ye wives of Lamech, give heed to my precept: for I have corrupted men for myself, and have taken away sucklings from the breasts, that I might show my sons how to work evil, and the inhabiters of the earth. And now shall vengeance be taken seven times of Cain, but of Lamech seventy times seven.\n77:1 II. 3. The names of Cain's cities, except the first, do not occur elsewhere.\n78:1 5. Jerahmeel says that Enoch, son of Cain, took Niba, daughter of Shem, to wife. His source is unknown to me.\n78:2 8. See the Appendix on Readings.\n78:3 10. Jubilees does not speak of this Lamech. The turn p. 79 here given to his \"song\" suggests that his offence was against morality; this view is found elsewhere.","title":"Biblical Antiquities of Philo: The Biblical Antiquities of Philo: Chapter II","type":"page"}
