5 Mutta Kainin ja hänen uhrinsa puoleen ei hän (leppyisesti) katsonut: silloin Kain vihastui sangen kovin, ja hänen hahmonsa muuttui.

441. That the invocation of the name of Jehovah did not commence at this time, is sufficiently evident from what has already been said above in regard to the Most Ancient Church, which more than any other adored and worshiped the Lord; and also from the fact that Abel brought an offering of the firstlings of the flock; so that in this passage by “calling upon the name of Jehovah” nothing else is signified than the worship of the new church, after the former church had been extinguished by those who are called “Cain” and “Lamech.”
