Cain & Abel — Crack the Code
“Am I my brother’s keeper?”
Genesis 4:9 · KJV
Two brothers. One offering. The first family that ever lived — and the first time anger turned deadly. When God asks Cain where his brother Abel is, Cain fires back a question people still wrestle with today: are we responsible for one another? This puzzle hides his exact words behind a secret code. Crack it letter by letter to reveal the verse — and to sit with the question it raises.
Here’s how it works: every letter in the verse has been swapped for a different one. Use the two gold starter letters to get going, jot your guesses in the code-breaker grid, and fill each box until the whole verse appears. The download includes a full answer key, so you can check yourself or challenge a friend. It’s built to print clean on plain white paper, so it won’t drink your ink.
