Genesis 4:22 - Zillah also had a son, Tubal-Cain, who forged all kinds of tools out of bronze and iron.
I wonder what kinds of tools Tubal-Cain invented. What needs or problems arose for which tools were the solution or a means to it? Some of the same ones as today, to be sure, but which were some of the first?
How did Tubal-Cain discover the skill of forging? Or was it someone else who first put fire and metal together and Tubal-Cain who applied it to tool making?
Did they make alloy metals or was it only pure bronze and pure iron that they worked with at first? Did the purification of the metals go hand in hand with the discovery of forging techniques or was that learned separately?
