"and its woman gave to the man the name of Eva, for being the mother of all the human beings" (GĂȘn 3,20).
according to Sacred Bible, all the humanity descends of the first human couple, Adam and Eva. Admits that they had been created already adult. The question most frequent, on the origin of the peoples, is as can have appeared new descendants of the man if in the beginning they were only Adam, Eva and two children men? Without speaking that it remained only Caim, after this to commit the first homicide of the humanity, against its Abel brother (GĂȘn. 4,8).
The reply if it finds in the GĂȘnesis book, book of the creation, one of books of the Pentateuco. The GĂȘnesis was written by MoisĂ©s, also known as the legislator, by means of revelation of the proper God and "never more arose in Israel prophet some as MoisĂ©s, with who had dealt you face the face" (Dt. 34,10).
In the truth, the Bible describes that Eva conceived Abel, Caim (GĂȘn.4.1,2), one third called son Seven (Gen.5.4); Perhaps for being numerous, perhaps because pparently, at that time, the descendants of the feminine sex did not count themselves. Thus, we cannot need the name the wife of Caim and nor of Abel, however they must have been its sisters, since Eva was the mother of all the livings creature. For question of survival and continuity of the race human being, she was allowed the cohabitation between brothers, practical considered abominable for God in the current days. "and Caim with its woman cohabited; it conceived and gave to the light the Enoque "(GĂȘn.4.17). "the seven were born-lhe(...) Enos; from there it was started to invoke the name of the Lord "(GĂȘn.4.26).
After the DilĂșvio, the new population of the land, including all the races and national groups, descended of Noah through its three children and the women of these, which had survived to this Global DilĂșvio. But that is subject for one another occasion. Thus, after signing up 70 descendants of the children of Noah, the story of GĂȘnesis says: "... and of these the nations in the land had been spread" (GĂȘn.10.32).
