Religious References in East of Eden. Religion constantly appears throughout Steinbeck's East of Eden. Among these religious appearances are the similarities between the Cain and Abel story and the characters, the Hebrew word timshel, and the presence of God/Fate in the novel. First, East of Eden is a reenactment of the Cain and Abel tale. Many similarities are seen between the two. The title East of Eden comes from the biblical tale when  'Cain went out from the presence of the Lord and dwelt in the land of Nod on the east of Eden'  (Steinbeck 352).
