370. Verse 9. And Jehovah said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not, am I my brother’s keeper? “Jehovah said unto Cain” signifies a certain perceptivity from within that gave them a dictate concerning charity or the “brother Abel.” Cain’s reply, “I know not, am I my brother’s keeper?” signifies that faith considered charity as nothing, and was unwilling to be subservient to it, consequently that faith altogether rejected everything of charity. Such did their doctrine become.
