Translation of Genesis 4:1

And Adam "knew" his wife Eve, and she became pregnant, and gave birth to Cain. She said: I have received a man with Yahweh.

Translation of Genesis 4:2

And she "did again" to give birth to his brother Abel.

Abel was a shepherd, Abel shepherded cattle. And Cain was a worker over the ground.

And she added to give birth his brother with the Baal.

Comments

Was Cain dedicated Yahweh and Abel dedicated to Baal? (Intuition would suggest the reverse.)
