The City of Violence
The city started in a place of self protection and now it's creating things that can be used for good or bad. Lamek deviates from the garden ideal by taking two wives instead of one. He claims God's own authority, but for himself when he says if God was going to protect Cain, you know, seven times for murdering someone, then he just asserts that God will avenge me 77 times. So yeah, it's a picture of the scaling of what Cain did on a very small one to one basis is now scaling with the human city of violence.
