Genesis4:13
13, And Cain said unto the LORD, my punishment is greater than I can bear.
Heb. My Sin: But Sin seems here to be put for punishment, as before ver. 7. and Gen. 19. 15. Levit. 5. 1. Psal. 69. 27. Prov. 12. 21. For Cain was not so sensible of his sin, as of the ill effects of it, as himself shews ver. 14.
Marginal references: Or, mine iniquity is greater than that it may be forgiven.
