In the Biblical story of Cain and Abel from the book Genesis, there is no doubt that Cain was the central character. It was Cain, who got so angry, when God preferred Abel’s gift over Cain’s, it was also him, who had a conversation with God about the role of sin in man’s life and at the end, it was him who killed his own brother, but on the other hand lived a long life full of children. This story is mainly about Cain, so is Steinbeck’s East of Eden. In the first generation of the Trask family,

The story of Cain and Abel in the book of Genesis is a great illustration of frustration-induced criminality. According to Berkowitz, “delay or blockage may generate intense anger or even a violent response, if the frustrated individual believes that type of response will eliminate the interference” (Bartol & Bartol, 2016, p. 94). In Genesis 4:4-5, Cain’s perception that Abel was blocking God’s approval of him is illustrated, “and the Lord had regard for Abel and his offering, but for Cain and his

Cain expresses various weaknesses and strengths throughout the story of himself and his brother. Within the story, his weaknesses seemed to overpower the significance of the strengths. The one attribute that stood out the most on each side of the spectrum was his love to please God and his jealousy created by not receiving the same love from God. I believe that it is significant that Cain’s weaknesses are shown in the story. It proves a case where most humans can find relatable and tell of a similar

According to the Old Testament, Cain is the first son of Adam and Eve, of whom also his brother Abel was born. The heresy of Cain was to kill his brother due to jealousy for not having the love of God, since he preferred the sacrifice of his brother (the firstborn of his sheep) to his (fruits of the earth). God then condemned him and he wandered the earth with a sign so that no one would dare to kill him. In this allusion in which Mister Utterson “inclines to Cain’s heresy,” he puts himself in the

frozen in place. However the lawyer starts by saying “for a few moments, meaning that this effect on him would not last forever like Lot’s wife's effect did. Since it is thought that Lot’s Wife looked back because her daughters were still in the house it suggests that the lawyer has some type of care for Bartleby that caused him to feel like a pillar of salt. By the narrator using quotations of biblical allusions to describe his feeling towards Bartleby it frame a story by creating a clash in the

In John Steinbeck’s East of Eden, Adam’s son Cal reflects the character of Cain in the Bible. Cain is born to Adam and Eve. When Cain and Abel present gifts to God, God favors Abel’s gift. Cain grows jealous and kills his brother out of jealousy. Though similar to Cain, John Steinbeck uses the choices Cal makes to contrast his character to Cain in the Bible and to demonstrate that, despite being evil, people can choose their course in life. Cal is similar to the Biblical character Cain in many ways

A tale of two brothers. Cain slays Abel out of wrath. Cain and Abel are two brothers and the sons of Adam and Eve. God gave Cain the job of a farmer and Abel the job of a shepherd. When Cain and Abel find out that they both have to sacrifice a lamb to God, Abel sacrifices his best lamb to God while Cain sacrifices some extra wheat he has. Cain becomes angry at Abel and God because God favored Abel’s sacrifice. Cain then leads Abel to a field and slays him out of rage. These events take place in Genesis’

The novel, East of Eden, by John Steinbeck references to the bible quite a bit when describing some of the characters. Steinbeck refers to the story of Cain and Abel, two brothers who lived in peace until Cain slaughtered Abel. One day the two boys were to offer sacrifices to god; Abel offers his best lamb and Cain offers grain to god. God prefers Abel’s gift over Cain’s and in a jealous fit of anger Cain murders Abel. After this God comes to talk to Cain about what he had just done and in doing
