Nod

(flight), the land to which Cain fled after the murder of Abel. [CAIN]

ATS Bible Dictionary

Nod

Wandering, a region east of Eden so named on account of wanderings in it of the exiled Cain, Genesis 4:16.

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia

NOD

nod (nodh): The land of Eden, to which Cain migrated after the murder of his brother and his banishment by Yahweh (Genesis 4:16). Conjecture is useless as to the region intended. The ideas of China, India, etc., which some have entertained, are groundless. The territory was evidently at some distance, but where is now undiscoverable.

Easton's Bible Dictionary

Exile; wandering; unrest, a name given to the country to which Cain fled (Genesis 4:16). It lay on the east of Eden.
