Nod, the land to which Cain withdrew, and in which he appears to have settled (). While the site of paradise itself remains undetermined, it is useless to seek for that of the land of Nod. This land, wherever it was, could not have had a name till Cain went to it; and it was doubtless called Nod (which signifies flight, wandering), from the circumstance that Cain fled to it.
