Kozma Norbert: Az áldozat elfogadásának – el nem fogadásának kérdése
Abstract: Cain and Abel offer sacrifices to the Lord, but the Lord did not look with favour on Cain’s sacrifice. The questions are not new: why did this happen; what does Gen 4 tell us about this incident; can we find a logical explanation. In this study we will explore these questions and try to answer them by focusing on the text of Scripture. Our conclusion will be that the reason for the rejection of the offering cannot be explained, but the goal is still outlined: even during trials
and failures, the possibility of choosing God and returning to God is always open to human beings.
Keywords: Cain and Abel, God’s freedom, man’s choice, repentance
