If Able had lived and Cain returned would Able have accepted him.

If Abel was able, I think he'd cane Cain's arse!!

The mark of Cain has given rise to much speculation. Many have tried to figure out what the mark was that God put on Cain that was so easily visible and clearly distinguished him from other men.

Then the LORD said to Cain, "Where is Abel your brother?"

He said, "I do not know; Am I my brother's keeper?"

And the LORD said, "What have you done? The voice of your brother's blood is crying to me from the ground. And now you are cursed from the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand. When you till the ground, it shall no longer yield to you its strength; you shall be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth."
Cain said to the LORD, "My punishment is greater than I can bear. Behold, thou hast driven me this day away from the ground; and from thy face I shall be hidden; and I shall be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will slay me."
And the Lord said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the Lord set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him. And Cain went out from the presence of the Lord, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden. Bible: Genesis 4

Does anyone know what the mark is ???

As to your question, from all I have read Abel was a good and nobel person, but Cain was always evil. or so it is my understanding. Therefore, I do wonder myself would Able have accepted him...
Good question

There's no doubt in my mind Cain needs able's forgiveness. People change. They were twin flames. They didn't look alike but they were only minutes apart and had a deep mental bond. I believe that not only would Able forgive Cain but he would embrace him and love him like nothing ever happened.

I think this story is a historically corrupted allegory about passing from hunter-gatherer to agricultural societies.

Perhaps we are dealing with the split mind and the personna Jung presented. The problem is all our life we are living in two worlds and we pay more mind to the one.

We are at war with the self. We are all in need of healing and recollection with all our beings.

Bael not sure.
