Genesis 4:2-8. In addition she gave birth to his brother Hevel. Hevel kept sheep, while Kayin worked the soil. 3 In the course of time Kayin brought an offering to ADONAI from the produce of the soil; 4 and Hevel too brought from the firstborn of his sheep, including their fat. ADONAI accepted Hevel and his offering 5 but did not accept Kayin and his offering. Kayin was very angry, and his face fell. 6 ADONAI said to Kayin, "Why are you angry? Why so downcast? 7 If you are doing what is good, shouldn't you hold your head high? And if you don't do what is good, sin is crouching at the door - it wants you, but you can rule over it." 8 Kayin had words with Hevel his brother; then one time, when they were in the field, Kayin turned on Hevel his brother and killed him.
Did not accept in the Hebrew is lo sha'ah, from the root Ga’al to look away, turn away, to reject. It is a verb, an action word meaning to cast off, loath, reject, cast away, to overlook. To be rejected is the failure to measure up to a certain standard. There is so much more to this story in Genesis, so much that isn’t stated that it gets lost in both translation and teaching. I’ve heard numerous teachings that God wanted the blood of the animal and so He accepted Hevel (Able’s) sacrifice but rejected Kayin (Cain’s) because it was grain, but, Grain offerings are acceptable to God:
Leviticus 2:1-6. "'Anyone who brings a grain offering to ADONAI is to make his offering of fine flour; he is to pour olive oil on it and put frankincense on it. 2 He is to bring it to the sons of Aharon, the cohanim. The cohen is to take a handful of fine flour from it, together with its olive oil and all its frankincense, and make this reminder portion go up in smoke on the altar as an offering made by fire, a fragrant aroma for ADONAI. 3 But the rest of the grain offering will belong to Aharon and his sons; it is an especially holy part of the offerings for ADONAI made by fire. 4 "'When you bring a grain offering which has been baked in the oven, it is to consist of either unleavened cakes made of fine flour mixed with olive oil or matzah spread with olive oil. 5 If your offering is a grain offering cooked on a griddle, it is to consist of unleavened fine flour mixed with olive oil; 6 you are to break it in pieces and pour olive oil on it -it is a grain offering.
Verse 11 of Leviticus 2 also states that no Chametz (Yeast) is to be included with the flour or cake offering. Adonai accepts grain offerings but there is certain requirements in the preparation and presentation of that grain offering to give to be presented to Adonai, just as there is with blood offerings.
Leviticus 3:3-6. He is to present the sacrifice of the peace offerings as an offering made by fire to ADONAI; it is to consist of the fat covering the inner organs, all the fat above the inner organs, 4 the two kidneys, the fat on them near the flanks, and the covering of the liver, which he will remove with the kidneys. 5 Aharon's sons will make it go up in smoke on the altar on top of the burnt offering which is on the wood on the fire; it is an offering made by fire, a fragrant aroma for ADONAI. 6 "'If his offering for a sacrifice of peace offerings to ADONAI is from the flock, then, when he offers it, no matter whether it is male or female, it must be without defect.
Hevel (Able’s) offering was accepted, Sha’ah in Hebrew to raise up with dignity, to look upon or gaze, to receive. The opposite of this is Lo Sha’ah, to not receive, to reject, to cast off. So why was Able’s offering really accepted and Kayin’s (Cain’s) offering not? God give the answer:
Genesis 4:6-7. ADONAI said to Kayin, "Why are you angry? Why so downcast? 7 If you are doing what is good, shouldn't you hold your head high? And if you don't do what is good, sin is crouching at the door - it wants you, but you can rule over it.
Adonai said to Kayin: “If you are doing what is good”. Do Good: im-teytiv in Hebrew, to be good, pleasing, to make a thing good, to do it right, to do thoroughly. Adonai tells Cain directly that if you are doing it right, if you are thoroughly doing it well in a pleasing fashion unto me shouldn’t you hold your head high? Head high is Se’et- a variant of Sha’ah, dignified, elevated, received, accepted! If you are doing the right thing, if you are presenting an offering to me in the right way, the way I desire you will be elevated, accepted, received! Just like His brother did. But Kayin didn’t listen to God or his brother.
Genesis 4:8. Kayin had words with Hevel his brother; then one time, when they were in the field, Kayin turned on Hevel his brother and killed him.
Kayin had words; Vayomer in the Hebrew: Informs, speaks, proposes, utters commands tells his brother Able what to do, he is apparently trying to entice Able to do it his way which was not accepted by God. Hevel (Able’s) answer isn’t recorded but the end result is, Able doesn’t accept Cain’s words so Kayin (Cain) turned on his brother and turned on him: vayakom in Hebrew; to arise in a hostile sense, to accuse, to stand against, to rise against. Cain stood against everything that His brother stood for! Cain didn’t just reject and murder his brother, he rejected Adonai. He killed Able, his brother. God is the only author and taker of life; murder is the ultimate sin and rejection of God. It is the antitheses of everything that God and His kingdom stand for. In fact, God states in
Genesis 4:10. He said, "What have you done? The voice of your brother's blood is crying out to me from the ground!
Crying is tsoakim in Hebrew: Blood shrieks, screaming, crying out for help, appeals! The life blood of his brother Abel is screaming from the ground to God, appealing to God for vindication, for help! It accuses Cain, his guilt is crying out, screaming to God! God warned him that if he didn’t do right that “sin was crouching at the door!” in verse 7. But God told Cain he could rule over it and have authority over it, to take charge of it, to control it!
I Corinthians 10:13. No temptation has seized you beyond what people normally experience, and God can be trusted not to allow you to be tempted beyond what you can bear. On the contrary, along with the temptation he will also provide the way out, so that you will be able to endure.
Temptation is peirasmos {pi-ras-mos'} in the Greek: A trial of a man's fidelity, integrity, virtue, constancy, an enticement to sin, temptation, whether arising from, the desires or from the outward circumstances an internal temptation to sin. Sin is crouching at the door, lurking, waiting to come in, if you let it in! Waiting to devour….
I Peter 5:6-9. Therefore, humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, so that at the right time he may lift you up. 7 Throw all your anxieties upon him, because he cares about you. 8 Stay sober, stay alert! Your enemy, the Adversary, stalks about like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 9 Stand against him, firm in your trust, knowing that your brothers throughout the world are going through the same kinds of suffering.
We humble ourselves, stay alert, and stand against the enemy in trust, knowing that others are also going through the same thing! Fear of rejection is universal. All have suffered it one time or another in your lives. We all seek, we all long for acceptance. Though rejection is often related to the world, we must master sin if we want to be accepted by God. With this idea in mind one can easily see and even understand how people believe that acceptance is based on "works," on "doing it right."
Israel, Ephraim, Shomron, the Ten Tribes the Northern Kingdom were rejected and scattered among the nations for this very reason
Hosea 4:1-6. Hear the word of ADONAI, people of Isra'el! For ADONAI has a grievance against the inhabitants of the land: there is no truth, no faithful love or knowledge of God in the land; 2 only swearing and lying, killing and stealing and committing adultery! They break all bounds, with one blood crime following another. 3 Therefore the land mourns, and everyone living there languishes, wild animals too, and the birds in the air; even the fish in the sea are removed. 4 But no one should quarrel or rebuke, because your people are having to quarrel with the cohen. 5 Therefore you will stumble by day, and the prophet will stumble with you at night. "I will destroy your mother. 6 My people are destroyed for want of knowledge. Because you rejected knowledge, I will also reject you as cohen for me. Because you forgot the Torah of your God, I will also forget your children.
Heavenly, Godly rejection (Judgement) is the result of lack of knowledge, not knowing who God is! Rejecting God, His word, and His Son results in God’s rejection of even his children. Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Rejecting Adonai actually results in legalistic religion, a system based upon works which affects both Judaism and Christianity. Both systems have rejected the full knowledge of God, developed and instituted religious systems like Ephraim and based their relationship upon works. James says trust without works is dead, true, but your actions must match and reconcile to the word. But you are not saved by works:
Ephesians 2:6-9. That is, God raised us up with the Messiah Yeshua and seated us with him in heaven, 7 in order to exhibit in the ages to come how infinitely rich is his grace, how great is his kindness toward us who are united with the Messiah Yeshua. 8 For you have been delivered by grace through trusting, and even this is not your accomplishment but God's gift. 9 You were not delivered by your own actions; therefore no one should boast.
No matter how many wonderful things you do in this world, how many acts of charity, how big your donations are, it does not get you a seat in eternity. God’s acceptance requires a life lived in an even balance of trust, faith coupled with works, deeds & actions. This brings us back to basic Torah understanding, morality, feasts, Shabbat etc… But it is even more refined, it is a very personal issue that everyone must deal with. One of Gods first and most basic tenants is:
Deuteronomy 5:7-10. "'You are to have no other gods before me. 8 You are not to make for yourselves a carved image or any kind of representation of anything in heaven above, on the earth beneath or in the water below the shoreline - 9 you are not to bow down to them or serve them; for I, ADONAI your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sins of the parents, also the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 10 but displaying grace to the thousandth generation of those who love me and obey my mitzvot
We define other "gods" as something or someone that comes between us and Him, something or someone that rules over you or has power over you. God’s first command is that we are to Love the Lord thy God with all they heart, strength, and soul. God’s love, His word is to circumcise our heart so that He may dwell within us, in our hearts! Anything else that takes Gods place in our heart is an idol.
Idols affect our judgment, our thinking, our emotions, and our actions. It replaces God’s teachings, morality, and lifestyle so that we in turn give ourselves over to the power of whatever is in opposition to God, that takes God’s place in your heart with all of His teachings, knowledge, and all that He is and stands for. This idolatry is actually a rejection of God. This isn’t just the classic idolatry such as worshiping cast idols, statues, or anything else that comes between us and God such as money, relationships, addictions, internet, and material possessions. It’s also a variety of various spiritual afflictions such as the Spirit of lust, Spirit of Fear, Fear of Men (people pleasing spirit), and codependency. God alone is our source of approval and acceptance, it comes from no other source. If you mistakenly look to man, to another person for approval and acceptance instead of Adonai that is idolatry, rejection of God. By allowing this we give those various spirits and afflictions power to rule our thoughts and decisions, to decide if we are or are not acceptable. Your acceptability belongs to God alone.
Once you believe you are not acceptable to Him or have replaced Him with someone else or something else your thinking becomes clouded and fuzzy, Kingdom principles become hard to understand, people question their identity, they seek an alternative identity, because theirs isn’t good enough or they are ashamed of who they are. This then leads to lies and fabrications because of rejection! This then leads people to look for love in all the wrong places, inappropriate relationships, and various other sexual dysfunctions. Like Cain it leads to anger, hatefulness, abandonment, out bursts of anger, and hateful, even murderous thoughts, which manifest like Cain or come forth in less drastic but just as murderous actions such as gossip and slander or character assassination. Other dysfunctional behavior manifests in order to drive people away through needy codependence, smothering people, relational suicide in an attempt to prevent yourself from getting hurt again. Hurting people hurt people, and usually the ones they love the most. This becomes an endless list of repetitive dysfunctions, you can only have one God, one master not two.
Matthew 6:24. No one can be slave to two masters; for he will either hate the first and love the second, or scorn the second and be loyal to the first. You can't be a slave to both God and money.
Whatever doesn’t reconcile to the truth of Scripture must be forsaken and no longer carried in our hearts. The very words and acts of rejection used against you is exactly what Adonai uses for His glory. You shine the light of Messiah in freedom despite the ugliness in attitude from those who reject you. The beauty, peace, and love of Adonai has no limits in the lives of courageous believers who reject the lies of this world and embrace the truth of acceptance in Yeshua.
