Genesis Study — Canada
Readers across Canada can approach Genesis through English, French or another familiar language. This reading room begins in English while recognising that a francophone discussion may need to consider different translation choices. It is a study edition, not a statement on behalf of Canadian churches.
A place to read Genesis carefully across English and French traditions.

The first study asks why Cain's punishment and God's protection appear together. It also cautions against the historically harmful idea that Cain's mark describes any real population.
