Abel in Wikipedia
In the Hebrew Bible, Cain and Abel (Hebrew: קין ,הבל, Qayin,
Hevel)[1] are two sons of Adam and Eve. The Qur'an also
contains this story, with the names Qabil and Habil.[2]
In the Greek New Testament, Cain is referred to as εκ του
πονηρου. [3] In at least one translation this is rendered
"from the evil one"[4], while others have "of the evil
one."[5] Some interpreters take this to mean that Cain was
literally the son of the serpent in the Garden of Eden. A
parallel idea can be found in Jewish tradition,[6] that the
serpent (Hebrew nahash נחש) from the Garden of Eden was
father to firstborn Cain.
In all versions, Cain is a crop farmer and his younger
brother Abel is a shepherd.[7] Cain is portrayed as sinful,
committing the first murder by killing his brother,[8] after
God[9] has rejected his offerings of produce but accepted
the animal sacrifices brought by Abel.[10]
The oldest known copy of the Biblical narration is from the
1st century Dead Sea Scrolls.[11][12] Cain and Abel also
appear in a number of other texts,[13] and the story is the
subject of various interpretations.[14] Abel, the first
murder victim, is sometimes seen as the first martyr;[15]
while Cain, the first murderer, is sometimes seen as an
ancestor of evil.[16]...
