Junior Bible Quiz (JBQ) 10 Point Questions Practice Test

Cain and Abel are the first brothers mentioned in Scripture, the sons of Adam and Eve. Their story introduces the idea of siblings in a family and shows how jealousy and sin can affect relationships from the very start: Abel’s sacrifice is favored by God, Cain becomes angry, and the conflict leads to the first murder, setting a pattern for human choices and consequences. Adam and Eve aren’t brothers at all; they’re the first humans. Esau and Jacob are brothers too, but they come later in Genesis as the sons of Isaac and Rebekah. Seth and Enos aren’t brothers—Enos is Seth’s son. So Cain and Abel are the earliest pair of brothers described.
