And she proceeded forth and bare his brother Abel: And Abel became a shepherd, and Cain became a plowman.

And Abel, he brought also of the firstlings of his sheep and of the fat of them. And the LORD looked unto Abel and to his offering:

And Cain talked with Abel his brother. And as soon as they were in the fields, Cain fell upon Abel his brother and slew him.

And the LORD said unto Cain, "Where is Abel thy brother?" And he said, "I can not tell, am I my brother's keeper?"

Adam also lay with his wife yet again, and she bare a son and called his name Seth: "For God," said she, "hath given me another son for Abel whom Cain slew."

Obal, Abimael, Sheba,

The children of Shobal were these: Alvan, Manahath, Ebal, Shepho and Onam.

When the LORD thy God hath brought thee into the land whither thou goest to possess it, then put the blessing upon mount Gerizim and the curse upon mount Ebal,

When ye be come over Jordan, see that ye set up these stones which I command you this day in mount Ebal, and plaster them with plaster.

And these shall stand upon mount Ebal to curse: Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Dan and Naphtali.

Then Joshua built an altar unto the LORD God of Israel, in mount Ebal,

And all Israel and the elders thereof, and their officers and judges, stood part on this side the ark, and part on that side, before the priests: that were Levites which bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD - as well the stranger, as they that were born among them: half of them on the forefront of the Mount of Gerizim, and half of them on the forefront of mount Ebal: as Moses the servant of the LORD commanded, first to bless the people of Israel.

Now there was a man of Benjamin named Kish the son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Becorath, the son of Aphiah, the son of a man that was a Benjaminite, a man of might:

And Kish was Saul's father. And Ner, the father of Abner, was the son of Abiel.

And he went through all the tribes of Israel unto Abel-Bethmaacah and all Berim. And the people gathered unto him and went also after him.

And they came and besieged him in Abel-Bethmaacah. And they cast up a bank against the city, and it was besieged: All the people that was with Joab laboured busily to overthrow the wall.

And she said, "It hath been a common saying in the old time: 'Men must ask of Abel, and then go and finish the work.'

Abel is one of the quietest and faithfullest cities that are in Israel. And thou goest about to destroy a city that is as a mother in Israel. Why devourest thou the inheritance of the LORD?"

And Benhadad hearkened unto king Asa and sent the captains of the hosts which he had against the cities of Israel, and smote Ijon, Dan, Abel called Bethmaacah and all Chinnereth with all the land of Naphtali.

Ebal, Abimael, and Sheba;

The sons of Shobal: Alian, Manahath, Ebal, Shephi, and Onam. The sons of Zibeon: Aiah and Anah.

Haurai of the river of Gaash, and Abiel the Arbathite;

And over the camels Obil the Ishmaelite. And over the asses was Jehdiah the Meronothite.

that upon you may come all the righteous blood that was shed upon the earth: from the blood of righteous Abel, unto the blood of Zachariah the son of Barachiah, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar:

from the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zacharias, which perished between the altar and the temple. Verily I say unto you, It shall be required of this nation.

If I have hurt them, or committed anything worthy of death, I refuse not to die. If none of these things are, whereof they accuse me, no man ought to deliver me to them. I appeal unto Caesar."

But when the Jews cried contrary, I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar. Not because I had ought to accuse my people of.

By faith, Abel offered unto God a more plenteous sacrifice than Cain: by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: by which also he being dead, yet speaketh.

and to Jesus, the mediator of the new testament, and to the sprinkling of blood that speaketh better than the blood of Abel.
