I’ve always had lots of questions.
Discovering Google was a life changer.

I love researching, and there is no end to the depth of research.

I’m going to share some interesting questions I’ve googled, and the responses that fascinated or resonated with me.

Feel free to add as well.

From my recent search history.

Who did Adam and Eve’s children marry, and how many children did they have?


According to the Bible, Adam and Eve had three named children: Cain, Abel, and Seth; however, the text also mentions that they had "other sons and daughters," meaning they likely had more children beyond these three named ones.
Key points about Adam and Eve's children:
Named children: Cain, Abel, and Seth
Source: The Book of Genesis
Implication of "other sons and daughters": The Bible suggests Adam and Eve had more children than just the three named ones.

According to the Book of Jubilees, Cain married Awan, and Abel married her sister Azura. After Abel was murdered, Azura married Seth.
Here's some more information about Cain, Abel, and Seth:
Cain's wife
Some say that Cain married his sister or a close relative, like a niece. Others say that Cain's wife was Aclima, the daughter of Adam and Eve.
Abel's wife
According to the Midrash, Abel's promised wife was Aclima, who was more beautiful than Awan, Cain's promised wife.
Seth's wife
According to the Bible, Seth married his sister, Azura, who was four years younger than he was.

That’s fascinating.

Well you lead me to my next question 😊

How many years did Eve live for?

According to the Bible, the exact age of Eve at death is not explicitly stated, but based on the narrative in Genesis, she would have lived for a very long time, likely hundreds of years, as the lifespan of humans in the early biblical era was significantly longer than today; Adam, her husband, is recorded as living 930 years old.
Key points:
No specific age given: The Bible does not provide a precise age for Eve's death.
Long lifespan in early Bible: The narrative suggests that people in the time of Adam and Eve lived for many centuries.
Inference from Adam's age: Since Adam is mentioned as living 930 years, it can be assumed Eve likely lived a similarly long life.

I’m always googling pretty random things. Today I looked up “How many kids are you allowed to have in China?”

I guess a similar one would be- How much does a watermelon cost in China? 😂

Wouldn’t they all have to marry their sisters since there was no one else in the world?

Not so much interesting, but I like looking things up to find answers or more information about a topic, even when it’s not important. Like there was a debate here the other day about what trigger means. It doesn’t actually matter but I was curious so I googled it and then went down a rabbit hole to learn more.

Many times I google random facts while watching a movie or TV show. Especially historical ones.

We grew up with the world encyclopedia, I Googled most random things everyday.

Most of it isn't notable. Usually related to the news or something I read and want to research more.

When I was pregnant I googled lots of pregnancy related world records - most children from one pregnancy, biggest age gap between twins (it's months!), oldest mom, smallest surviving baby, probably more.

I know I've Googled plenty of other random interesting stuff more recently but nothing comes to mind.

I generally use AI chat to find out interesting info. So much easier and it does the search work for you.

I have also googled about hamsters. I wrote “Are there still hamsters in the wild?” (Very few at this point). But I still google things. AI chat is not a search engine. It has biases and makes mistakes.

I am a millennial and I do a lot of googling for work (my search history is colorful!). AI is not a reliable source, you need to double check everything. Not that straight googling is reliable either - you really need to check the sources and verify.

AI is extremely fallible.

I’ve heard a previous source that they were with their mother. I had never heard of them having girls before.
