      16. presence of the Lord--the appointed place of worship at Eden. Leaving it, he not only severed himself from his relatives but forsook the ordinances of religion, probably casting off all fear of God from his eyes so that the last end of this man is worse than the first (Mt 12:45).
      land of Nod--of flight or exile--thought by many to have been Arabia-Petræa--which was cursed to sterility on his account.
