NOTE

**Cain and Abel: The battle between the proper sacrifice **

The story of Cain and Abel illustrates the importance of making proper sacrifices to succeed in life. Cain's second-rate sacrifices are rejected because he is not fully committed. Instead of accepting this as corrective feedback, Cain's countenance falls, leading him to a murderous rage. The descendants of Cain become genocidal, symbolizing the consequences of improper sacrifice. The biblical narrative portrays the battle between Cain and Abel as the fundamental battle that rages in the human heart, representing the battle between proper and improper sacrifice and its cascading consequences, marking the start of history.
