The place
Nod was the land where Cain settled after he was banished by God for murdering his brother Abel (Gen. 4:16). The name "Nod" means "wandering," reflecting Cain's status as a fugitive and wanderer on the earth (Gen. 4:12, 14). The land of Nod was located to the east of Eden, but its precise location is not specified in the Bible. It is described as a place of exile, away from the presence of God and the rest of human society at that time.
