S1 E28 | Cain & Abel - The 1st Children & The 1st Sacrifice (Genesis 4:1-5)
In this episode, we discuss Adam and Eve's children Abel and his brother Cain. We talk about their sacrifice and talk a little about the offerings "מִנְחָה", which can also be translated as a gift or present. In some translations it's just offering, in others, its grain, meat or meal offerings. Nonetheless it was a gift or offering to God.
Also Hear God’s Word is now available on YouTube if you prefer using their platform for podcasts.

Last, on the topic of whether or not the type of sacrifice mattered, there is a bible paraphrase called "The Bible by Jesus". In it the passage on Cain's offering it says:
“After the boys grew to manhood, Abel became a shepherd. Cain became a farmer. When it came time for worship, Abel sacriticed the best firstborn from his flock. I respected Abel and his offering of worship. Cain brought the best of his vegetables, but I didn't approve of his worship offering, because he neglected blood to atone for sin. Cain lost his temper and lett in anger. asked Cain, "Why are you angry and sulking? If you bring the right kind of worship offering, I will receive it, and then you will be accepted. There is an animal for a sin offering at the door to your house. Offer him and you will be accepted."
* I'm not specifically convinced of the narrative and believe it's dangerous to make assumptions, but it's still a viewpoint that I've considered myself. Take it with grains of salt.
