"And Cain went out from the presence of theLord, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden."
The Spirit uses the phrase 'on the east' of Eden to define what signified 'out from the presence of God.' It is the first reference to the usage of outer darkness. Generation of Cain and his descendants belong there. God sets a mark on Cain as he does with the first fruits mentioned in Re.14:1-4 "And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads." Signs and wonders mark the saints redeemed from the earth.
