Thus Cain waxed worse and worse, and did grow in sin, Gen. 4.
1. He dealt hypocritically with God, vers. 4. He brought to God of the fruit of the ground, but kept back his heart. (2) He envied his brother Abel, and the grace of God that appeared in him, 1 Joh. 3.12. and he offered to God and persecuted his brother to death, Gen. 4.8. (3) He lieth before an all knowing God, speaking falsely, vers. 9. (4) He flies in the face of God, as if God had charged him with that which was not his duty. Am I my brothers keeper? (5) He despaireth of mercy, vers. 13. My punishment is greater than I can bear, or, My sin is greater than that it may be forgiven. (6) He flies from God, vers. 16. (7) He takes up with the pleasures and profits of the world without God, vers. 17. So Cain increased in wickedness.
