Summarize the main points of the story of Cain and Abel.
Cain and Abel were the first two sons of Adam and Eve; Cain, the elder brother, was a farmer while Abel was a shepherd. When both brothers offered sacrifices to God, God favored Abel's offering (likely because it was the best of his flock) over Cain's offering of field produce, causing Cain to become jealous and enraged. Driven by anger, Cain killed his brother Abel, leading to God cursing Cain and forcing him to wander the earth as a fugitive
