The Scripture above, if you can get through all the posturing. Who cares whether it was literal or spiritual?
The end result is that Cain is not in Adam's geneology; I've never heard a good explanation for this yet. SOI, if you have one, could you keep it succinct? Ty
Neither Cain or Abel are in the genealogy.
The explanation has long been extant. Let me assist you in further Truth.
Not every man was registered in the genealogy, only those necessary to link the Messianic Line from Adam to Yeshua. Neither Cain nor Abel were to be in the line of Messiah. See 1 Chronicles 1.
Many men were sired and born of Godly parents but only those as the link to Messiah were recorded. Else thousands of names would have been recorded. It was not necessary. That the Sovereignty of God be established choosing whomsoever He would, the names represented in the genealogy are His choice of the men who link the first man [Adam] to second Man and Last Adam, Yeshua.

Ok, well, Abel, being dead, makes more sense being absent than Cain, being the firstborn, imo. But that is the most popular reply, I guess. Like I said, I've yet to hear a good explanation here.

Ok, it's repeated in a few other places, too. I'm somewhat skeptical of a physical union at this point, myself; and don't find it necessary. We have an idiom that exists to this day indicating that someone may be a 'father' spiritually to something, and we know that we are flesh, and spirit, and it is the spiritual 'family' that seems to matter more.

Proverbs 30:20
“This is the way of an adulterous woman:
She eats and wipes her mouth
and says, ‘I’ve done nothing wrong.’
James 1:14-15
but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. 15 Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.
Was it sex ? No , it was not listening , obeying.
After the first sin they were driven out of the Garden, and only than Adam and Eve had sexual intercourse.

Ya, that is just hard to fit into eating "fruit,"
but I think that is pretty close. But, if "not
obeying" was eating of the tree of knowledge,
there still seems to be another act, the actual
sin, missing?
Personally, I think it's a great description of acquiring frontal lobes;
what separates us from the animals, if not the knowledge of good/evil?
Re: Is The Serpent Seed Doctrine A "Damnable Heres
In not listening is included doing the actual sin. What it was , we may never know.Something with pride probably. Does it matter?
It's like with a married couple , that want to divorce , but they don't remember where it all went wrong. Mostly it all began with some argument about nothing. Just not agreeing.
