● Heb 11:4 . . By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts
● Heb 13:15 . . By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.
The Greek word for "sacrifice" is the same in both those passages. It's the same word in the passage below too.
● Rom 12:1 . . I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
That ambiguity has to make us take a step back and figure out just what kind of offerings Cain and Abel were supposed to bring that day-- bloody or non bloody / for their sins or not for their sins / burnt offerings or non burnt offerings?
