I agree that it was exaggerated. I don't believe it was an angel or anything capable of thought as depicted in this book. However, in a narrative sense it follows to make it more than it is. It's just another poetic change that the author made.

Cain's mark was a mark of God's protection on cain against the harsh ramifications of his punishment, it was not Angelic to me in any form.Nazzo wrote: ↑14 Feb 2022, 07:06 Another interesting depiction by the author was Cain's mark. I thought the author really stretched his poetic license in calling Cain's mark an angel. In my opinion and from my understanding of the Bible, Cain's mark was placed by God to protect him from the harsh ramifications of his punishment. But this was different in the book.
What are your thoughts?

I agree with you Bennaji, the author did stretch his poetic license by narrating that Cain's marking was an Angel to protect him.
