Question:
|
Thank you Ric for answering my question.I have here the descendance as I read it in the Bible:
Cain gave birth to Enoch ,who gave birth toIrad ,who gave birth to Mejuhael,who gave birth to Metusael,Who gave birth to Lamec.
And on the other branch it says:
Seth gave birth to Jared ,who gave birth to Enoch,who gave birth to Metusael,who gave birth to Lamec.
I thank you for your time and I hope you can help me ,as I said in the first question,I am just beginning to read the bible.Thank you. |

Answer:

I looked this up in my Bible dictionary, I don't think it will help you much, but give it a read. .................. LAMECH (Heb. lemekh, meaning undetermined). 1. A son of Methushael (Gen 4:18-24) and a descendant of Cain, who had two wives, Adah and Zillah. His sons founded the nomadic life and the musical arts, and invented metalcrafts and instruments of war. Lamech's song (4:23-24) expresses every feature of Hebrew poetry (alliteration, parallelism, poetic diction, etc.). 2. The son of Methuselah (5:28-31). This man, a descendant of Seth, became the father of Noah. His faith is attested by the name he gave his son, Noah (meaning "rest"), and by the hope of "comfort" (5:29) that he anticipated in his son's life. ................... I'm just a layperson without much Bible study (just Bible study at home and at church), but I'll keep trying to answer posts here - it help's me understand God's Word better too!
