CAIN and ABEL, some questions.

WHERE IS GOD WHEN THE RIGHTEOUS ARE IN HARM’S WAY?

In further study of the early part of the Book of Genesis I have some questions.

Where was God when Abel was being slain? I can't imagine that Abel, who had just established communion with God, would not cry out to God for help as his brother was squeezing the life-blood out of him. Where was God’s protection?

I have reflected on these questions myself but I would like to hear what others think. Any answers? - Calorius
