So Cain is the son of Satan?

My sense is that Eve was giving thanks to God for the mystery of procreation. It is implied in the text, and in the ancient Middle Eastern concept that God is responsible for all things and transcends the cause-and-effect cycle.

Nothing more is suggested by the verse.

Oh absolutely. It is written, "in him give thanks in all things". Unfortunately there are alot of people out there trying to make scripture say what they want instead of what is there, they add to it or take away from it which God has forbid.

Gotta love Eisegesis.

Look, the Tanakh says that Eve had a child with YHVH, not with Satan. Now, what that means is that she was praising YHVH for her good fortune. It is praising the Creator for every bite of food. One is not literally saying that one got the food outside of normal cause-and--effect relationships. One is saying that those cause and effect relationships are blessed. Furthermore, she praised YHVH, not Satan.

No sex is implied here.

Learn some Hebrew, people!
