RF GEN 5:1 The Genealogy of Mankind, who were created as Representatives of God.
This is the Birth-Book of Men. From the time that GOD created men, making them to represent God;
RF GEN 5:2 constituting them male and female, giving them His blessing and naming them by the name of Mankind, upon the day of their creation.
RF GEN 5:3 Adam, when he was one hundred and thirty years old, produced a representative of himself, like his own shadow,
RF GEN 5:4 and gave him the name of Sheth. And the lifetime of Adam, after the birth of Sheth, was eight hundred years, during which time sons and daughters were born to him.
RF GEN 5:5 So the whole lifetime of Adam was nine hundred and thirty years when he died.
RF GEN 5:6 And Sheth was one hundred and five years old when Enosh was born to him.
RF GEN 5:7 And Sheth, after the birth of Enosh, lived eight hundred and seven years, and had sons and daughters born to him
RF GEN 5:8 And the whole lifetime of Sheth was nine hundred and twelve years, when he died.
RF GEN 5:9 And Enosh1 lived ninety years,
RF GEN 5:10 And Enosh, after the birth of Kenan, lived eight hundred and fifty years, and had sons and daughters born to him.
RF GEN 5:11 And all the lifetime of Enosh was nine hundred and five years, and he then died.
RF GEN 5:12 And Kenan lived seventy years when Mahalalel was born to him.
RF GEN 5:13 And Kenan, after Mahalalel was born to him, lived eight hundred and thirty years, and had sons and daughters born to him.
RF GEN 5:14 So the whole lifetime of Kenan was nine hundred and ten years; and he died.
RF GEN 5:15 And Mahalalel living until he was sixty-five years of age, had Jared born to him.
RF GEN 5:16 And Mahalalel, after the birth of Jared, lived eight hundred and thirty years, and sons and daughters were born to him;
RF GEN 5:17 and the whole lifetime of Mahalalel was eight hundred and ninety-five years, when he died.
RF GEN 5:18 And Jared lived until he was one hundred and sixty-two years of age, when Hanok 2 was born to him.
RF GEN 5:19 And after the birth of Hanok, Jared lived eight hundred years, and had sons and daughters born to him;
RF GEN 5:20 and the whole lifetime of Jared was nine hundred and sixty-two years; and he died.
RF GEN 5:21 And Hanok lived until the age of sixty-five years, when Methuselah was born to him.
—————
1. Enosh, the son of Sheth, must not be confused with the Hanok, the son of Cain, mentioned in 4:17. They are totally different.—F.F.
2. The barbarous spelling of the old translators has confused the genealogies, which I have endeavored to again elucidate.
RF GEN 5:22 And Hanok walked with GOD, after Methuselah had been born to him, three hundred years, and sons and daughters were born to him.
RF GEN 5:23 And the whole lifetime of Hanok was three hundred and sixty-five years.
RF GEN 5:24 And Hanok walked with' GOD—; and he did not die, God having taken him to Himself.
RF GEN 5:25 And Methuselah, having lived until he was one hundred and eighty-seven years of age, had Lamek 1 born to him;
RF GEN 5:26 and Methuselah, after Lamek had been born to him, lived seven hundred and eighty-two years, having had sons and daughters born to him,
RF GEN 5:27 And the whole lifetime of Methuselah was nine hundred and sixty-nine years; and he then died.
RF GEN 5:28 And Lamek lived until he was one hundred and eighty-two years of age, when a son was born to him,
RF GEN 5:29 to whom he gave the name of Noah,2 saying, "He comforts in our labour, and in, the trouble of our hands, upon the land which was denounced by the EVER-LIVING."
RF GEN 5:30 And Lamek, after Noah was born to him, lived until the age of five hundred and ninety-five years, sons and daughters being born to him,
RF GEN 5:31 And the whole lifetime of Lamek was seven hundred and seventy-seven years, When he died.
RF GEN 5:32 And Noah was five hundred years old, when Shem, Ham, and Japheth were born to him.
—————
1. This Lamek, son of Methuselah, is a totally different person to the Lemek, descended from Cain, and mentioned in Ch. 4, v. 23.—F.F.
2 Noah, meaning Comfort. F.F.
