They could have known, had they followed Enoch’s example, but it appears no one wanted to know except God, so God took him. Enoch, Seth’s great-great-great grandson, walked so closely with God that God took him directly to heaven when Enoch was 365 years old (Genesis 5:22–24). I think im starting to freak is both out a little. There will come a time again when we will have a chance to be taken, but if we envy successful people while ignoring their injustices done to others, or are preoccupied with entertainment, our careers, working, the opposite sex, and anything else aside from doing God’s will, we too will miss our Enoch moment, and perish like those in the Great Flood.

This was recorded for our benefit, so that Mankind can be portrayed in that pre-Flood world as one “Lamech” or the other. Hi friend, have you considered that this may be God? Genesis 4:15-19 (KJV) One … Yes there are 2 men by the name of lamech inGenesis 1. Enoch walked with God after he fathered Methuselah 300 years and … Lamech shared a name with the notorious Cainite who had boasted of killing at least two men. That must’ve been some fortress, because there’s a chance that Enoch – a descendant of Seth – was named after it. There seems to have had been at least communication between the two tribes. Genesis 4:25). Methuselah lived longer than anyone else recorded in the Bible: 969 years Methuselah died the same year that the great flood waters came upon the earth, so he either died in the flood itself, or died shortly before the flood arrived. Lamech definition: the son of Enoch , and the father of Jabal, Jubal, and Tubal-cain. Thus this a hint that Enoch’s son Methusaleh was inspired by… the violent entrepreneur, even as his father was demonstrating intimacy with the One True God. (Gen. 5:18). Don't think this strange or unusual. 19. Methuselah was the son of Enoch, the father of Lamech, and the grandfather of Noah. Methusaleh lived 969 years – the oldest man in the bible. Thanks for sharing. Still worried, Lamech asked his father Methuselah (who died at the age of 969) to apply to his grandfather Enoch, who had disappeared at the age of 365 and won his "dwelling-place among the angels. It wasn’t that these men were necessarily egregious in their sins. The Ethiopic Apocalypse of Enoch or 1 Enoch (formerly known as the Book of Enoch) is a pseudepigraphal compilation of five originally independent works attributed to Enoch (Gen. 5:18–24). Lamech, Son of Methuselah (לֶ֫מֶךְ ‎, lemekh; Λάμεχ, Lamech). Lamech likely lived near the city of Enoch that his great-great-great grandfather, Cain built. Henoch, Methuselah, Lamech, Henoch. After Methuselah's birth, he walked with God for 300 years and sired other children. Moreover, the Noah fragment in i Enoch 106 contains the … I don’t believe in biblical coincidences; I think that such “coincidences” are invitations to dig deeper, so let’s shovel some ideas. Cain and Abel were not only the two sons of Eve, they were also the human beginning of what would develop into two opposing kingdoms—the kingdom of God and the kingdom of Satan. That’s right, it was Lamech, the violent entrepreneur in the line of Cain. The rest of the story is missing.

Seth’s genealogy includes ages as benchmarks, and if we do the math, Enoch was still alive to see the birth of his grandson, which was a brisk 113 years before he taken. However, the name given to his grandson was “Lamech”. Adam was alive when Lamech, Noah's father, was born, and he died just 126 years before Noah was born. (Ge 4:17, 18) His lifetime and Adam’s overlapped. Interestingly, these men were quite opposite of each other, Enoch was a righteous man, Lamech was a worldly, ungodly man. Jude 14-15 records Enoch’s preaching: “See, the Lord is coming with thousands upon thousands of his holy ones to judge everyone, and to convict all the ungodly of all the ungodly acts they have done in the ungodly way, and of all the harsh words ungodly sinners have spoken against him.” By comparing Lamech's saying with the age of Enoch at his death, we may deduce from Scripture that Lamech (by himself or with a mob) stilled Enoch's voice by murder. Ever prophetically speaking to us, the Bible shows that all descendants of Adam – whether they hail from Cain’s line or Seth’s – had reached their personal breaking point of “Lamech”, for better or for worse. Gen . Enoch was taken when he was 365 years old. And Lamech took unto him two wives: the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah. Enoch was born of the lineage of Seth, Cain's brother. Methuselah later had a son named Lamech. Cain or of Seth? Since the family's reputation was at stake, something had to be done. As we read about this profaning, or polluting, of the Name (which could literally be understood as YHVH’s reputation, or legacy), it’s sandwiched between Cain’s geneaology – which ends with multiple blasphemies and evils spoken by Lamech – and Seth’s geneaology – which ends with stressful words of the other Lamech, who was the father of Noah. The son of Methushael and a descendant of Cain. The individual books of 1 Enoch were written between 300 and 100 B.C. Genesis 5:21-24 And Enoch lived sixty and five years, and begat Methuselah: … Hebrews 11:5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he … Lamech is a person in Cain's genealogy in the fourth chapter of the Book of Genesis. לֶמֶךְ) was one of the antediluvian patriarchs in Genesis.According to the list recounting the lineage of Cain (Gen. 4:17–24 – ascribed to the J tradition), Lamech was the son of Methushael (4:18) and the father of three sons, Jabal, Jubal, and Tubal-Cain, and a daughter, Naamah (4:20–22).His wives were Adah and Zillah (4:19). The very fact that Enoch “walked with God” is an indication that his contemporaries were not; they were more concerned with fortresses, their fields, eating and drinking, building harems, and so forth (cf. How certain can we be of which line it came from? See more. Thank you. I like to imagine that God was so want of intimacy with men in those days that He literally took it where He could find it – in this case, the soul of Enoch. Lamech is the antithesis of Enoch, yet Lamech and Enoch are intended to be viewed as actors on the same stage, continuing the tension first displayed in Cain and Abel. Lamech was also the first recording of polygamy in the bible, as well as a murderer. Many of Lamech's ancestors were likely alive and also lived in the vicinity of Enoch. However, I would caution using modern translations – I am not sure any of those books, such as the ones that came from Ethiopia, is the same as quoted by the Apostle James. Gen. 4:17). Lamech, the father of Noah, is mentioned in the Apocrypha in Jubilees 4:27–28 and i Enoch 10:1, and in Jubilees 7:38 some emphasis is put on the fact that it was he who transmitted the teaching of Enoch to Noah. Now I realize that’s complete speculation, but at any rate, Enoch might’ve been named after a fortress of Cain, but he definitely didn’t go the “way of Cain” – he “walked with God, and was not, for God took him.” (Gen. 5:24). Clearly no one else was joining Enoch in his walk, in fact it appears that in those days Enoch’s relatives were looking to the successes of Cain’s line, as well as the other distractions mentioned by both Moses (Gen.  6:1-5) and especially Messiah Yeshua: “As the days of Noah were, so will the coming of the Son of Man be. And now make known to thy son Lamech that he who has been born is in truth his son, and call his name Noah; for he shall be left to you, and he and his sons shall be saved from the destruction, which shall come upon the earth on account of all the sin and all the unrighteousness, which shall be consummated on the earth in his days.

That last paragraph is completely true for us in this time! And unto Enoch was born Irad: and Irad begat Mehujael: and Mehujael begat Methusael: and Methusael begat Lamech.

Lamech’s sin is worse than Cain’s because of his boast that those who take revenge on him will be avenged seventy-seven fold (Gen. 4:24). “Two wives”: No reason is given on Lamech’s part for the first recorded instance of bigamy. Luke 3:36 Which was the son of Cainan, which was the son of Arphaxad, which was the son of Sem, which was the son of Noe, which was the son of Lamech, Enoch -- four Israelites, sons of Cain, Jered, Midian and Reuben, Methuselah -- perhaps 'man of the dart', a descendant of Seth, Lamech -- a descendant of Cain, also a descendant of Seth, OT History: 1 Chronicles 1:3 Enoch Methuselah Lamech (1 Chron.

He has studied different religions and know’s alot about his bible and when I tell him things Ive been seeing or the things that have popped into my head he will look up what he is not sure about and sais good job. In Genesis 5 it talks about “When Enoch had lived 65 years, he became the father of Methuselah……When Methuselah had lived 187 years he became the father of Lamech.” Back in Genesis 4 it says “To Enoch was born Irad, and Irad was the father of Mehujael, and Mehujael was the father of Methushael, and Mathushael was the father from Lamech.” Well done! Thus, Cain’s ancestral line (at least, our written record of it) ends abruptly, but I believe this is completely by design. 24:37-38). Something odd has been happening to me and I don’t really know how to explain it. Like with the naming of his father Enoch (Jared's son). Had it not been for your thought’s i would’ve continued to believe that I was starting to really go crazy. Enoch had a son named [L To Enoch was born; C and so through the rest of the genealogy] Irad, Irad had a son named Mehujael, Mehujael had a son named Methushael, and Methushael had a son named Lamech. I just wanted to thank you for taking the time to write and confirm that there was indeed two (2) different Enoch’s. He is a sixth-generation descendant of Cain (Genesis 4:18); his father was named Methushael, and he was responsible for the "Song of the Sword". Methuselah listened attentively as Lamech revealed this strange story, then promised his son that he would seek the advice of his father, the wise and godly Enoch. He is also noted as the first polygamist mentioned in the Bible, taking two wives, Adah and Zillah (Tselah). Scripture: Genesis 4:19, Genesis 4:23-26, Genesis 5:21-24. Noah, 500 years old, fathered Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Thus it appears that Cain’s ancestors were on a fast track to perdition, while the descendants of Seth gradually followed the influences of Cain’s descendants.

Some point to a particular passage which describes an account from Enoch’s grandson, Lamech, during the birth of his son, which read: “ And his father, Lamech, was afraid of him and fled, and come to his father Methuselah. The former Lamech spouts off elitist and violent words, while the latter Lamech agonizes over the stress and adversity of life. Enoch, whose name meant "the intelligent" or "the learned," sensed the meaning of what had happened. This is no accident; both men’s words show how Mankind had shifted to two extremes – one to the uber-violent while the other became ultra-oppressed. This Enoch here seemed to be the ancestor of some earthly controlled people, as we will see in the following verses. Referred to as the Apocryphal Genesis, the ancient text describes the lives of Noah, Abraham, Enoch and Lamech, characters from the book of Genesis, and most importantly, the passages are not narrated in the third person, but it is Noah himself who tells the story. Ingrid, the texts of that book are traditionally attributed to the latter Enoch, the one taken. Seth’s genealogy includes ages as benchmarks, and if we do the math, Enoch was still alive to see the birth of his grandson, which was a brisk 113 years before he taken. Enoch’s son Methusaleh (the oldest man recorded in the Bible) continued the righteous line and fathered Lamech (verse 25). I said a prayer for you, I hope He will give you understanding in this life. However, just two generations later, Mankind as a whole “began to profane the name of YHVH.” Therefore the question becomes: ‘how did the descendants of Seth stray?’  By all appearances, Cain’s descendants reached the point of ‘Lamech’ within five generations, while Seth’s ancestors reached their tipping point in seven.
