Generations from Adam to Noah
1. Generations from Adam to Noah
Note:Some of these notes on the individuals have not yet been completed.
2. Remez: Concealed and revealed
|
The Hebrew word "רמז" (remez) ≈ "remez". There are many places in the Old Testament that have hint of what can be considered a "remez".
|
From the Hebrew, a "
remez" is a hint of some deeper meaning.
A "
remez" is a form of what in the security field is called "
steganography". That is, a message concealed such that it does not, at first glance, appear that there is a hidden message there.
GNT (Greek New Testament) example:
parables
3. Gospel
Where in the Bible is the Gospel story and plan of salvation mentioned? (Hint: As a Hebrew "remez" or hint of something deeper).

6. Generations
In pre-flood times, as in some cultures today, names of people have a meaning.
Sometimes the meanings make sense. In other cases, the meaning has been lost.
In pre-flood times, the meaning of the names in the genealogy from Adam to Noah appear to make a statement about the Gospel story.
As an example, take the names of the first ten generations in Genesis and their meaning in the original language.
7. Genesis 2:7 Adam
8. Adam and ruddy red clay
Genesis 2:19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof. [kjv]
και επλασεν ο θεος ετι εκ της γης παντα τα θηρια του αγρου και παντα τα πετεινα του ουρανου και ηγαγεν αυτα προς τον αδαμ ιδειν τι καλεσει αυτα και παν ο εαν εκαλεσεν αυτο αδαμ ψυχην ζωσαν τουτο ονομα αυτου [lxx]
… האדמה … האדם … האדם … [he]
The first man, created by God.
Dirt or clay of a reddish-brown color.
The color "red" is in "ruddy".
9. Genesis 2:7
KJV: And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
Hebrew: וייצר יהוה אלהים את האדם עפר מן האדמה ויפח באפיו נשמת חיים ויהי האדם לנפש חיה׃
Greek: και επλασεν ο θεος τον ανθρωπον χουν απο της γης και ενεφυσησεν εις το προσωπον αυτου πνοην ζωης και εγενετο ο ανθρωπος εις ψυχην ζωσαν
Latin: formavit igitur Dominus Deus hominem de limo terrae et inspiravit in faciem eius spiraculum vitae et factus est homo in animam viventem
10. Genesis 4:25 Seth
Genesis 4:25 And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew. [kjv]
… שת … שת … [he]
εγνω δε αδαμ ευαν την γυναικα αυτου και συλλαβουσα ετεκεν υιον και επωνομασεν το ονομα αυτου σηθ λεγουσα εξανεστησεν γαρ μοι ο θεος σπερμα ετερον αντι αβελ ον απεκτεινεν καιν [lxx]

12. Genesis 4:26 Enos
Genesis 4:26 And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the LORD. [kjv]
… אנוש … [he]
και τω σηθ εγενετο υιος επωνομασεν δε το ονομα αυτου ενως ουτος ηλπισεν επικαλεισθαι το ονομα κυριου του θεου [lxx]
It appears that "
calling on the name of the Lord" may have been in a profane way and not in a reverent way.
13. Genesis 4:26
KJV: And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the LORD.
Hebrew: ולשת גם הוא ילד בן ויקרא את שמו אנוש אז הוחל לקרא בשם יהוה׃
Greek: και τω σηθ εγενετο υιος επωνομασεν δε το ονομα αυτου ενως ουτος ηλπισεν επικαλεισθαι το ονομα κυριου του θεου
Latin: sed et Seth natus est filius quem vocavit Enos iste coepit invocare nomen Domini
14. Cainan
There is some ambiguity on the meaning of Cainan.
Kenan (Luther Bible, not Cainan, others) means sorrow or dirge. In the Hebrew (and Greek) the difference is not clear.

KJV: And Cainan lived seventy years, and begat Mahalaleel:
Hebrew: ויחי קינן שבעים שנה ויולד את מהללאל׃

Latin: vixit quoque Cainan septuaginta annis et genuit Malalehel

Spanish: Y vivió Cainán setenta años, y engendró a Mahalaleel.
17. Genesis 5:13
KJV: And Cainan lived after he begat Mahalaleel eight hundred and forty years, and begat sons and daughters:

Greek: και εζησεν καιναν μετα το γεννησαι αυτον τον μαλελεηλ επτακοσια και τεσσαρακοντα ετη και εγεννησεν υιους και θυγατερας

Latin: et facti sunt omnes dies Malalehel octingenti nonaginta quinque anni et mortuus est
Spanish: Y fueron todos los días de Mahalaleel ochocientos noventa y cinco años; y murió.
21. Jared
Genesis 6:4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. [kjv]
οι δε γιγαντες ησαν επι της γης εν ταις ημεραις εκειναις και μετ εκεινο ως αν εισεπορευοντο οι υιοι του θεου προς τας θυγατερας των ανθρωπων και εγεννωσαν εαυτοις εκεινοι ησαν οι γιγαντες οι απ αιωνος οι ανθρωποι οι ονομαστοι [lxx]
|
The Hebrew word "ירד" (yered) ≈ "descend". In Hebrew, Jared means "shall come down". It is during his time that it appears that the angels that left their habitation did their deeds.
|
The English word
"Jared"comes from the Latin word
"Iared" ≈ "Jared" which comes from the ancient Greek word
"Ἰαρέδ" ≈ "Jared" which comes from the Hebrew word
"ירד" (yered) ≈ "descend, go down".
22. Genesis 6:4
KJV: There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.
Hebrew: הנפלים היו בארץ בימים ההם וגם אחרי כן אשר יבאו בני האלהים אל בנות האדם וילדו להם המה הגברים אשר מעולם אנשי השם׃
Greek: οι δε γιγαντες ησαν επι της γης εν ταις ημεραις εκειναις και μετ εκεινο ως αν εισεπορευοντο οι υιοι του θεου προς τας θυγατερας των ανθρωπων και εγεννωσαν εαυτοις εκεινοι ησαν οι γιγαντες οι απ αιωνος οι ανθρωποι οι ονομαστοι

Greek: προεφητευσεν επροφητευσεν δε και τουτοις εβδομος απο αδαμ ενωχ λεγων ιδου ηλθεν κυριος εν μυριασιν αγιαις μυριασιν αυτου
39. Methuselah
Methuselah means "his death shall bring". The year Methuselah died was the year that the flood of Noah came. This is determined by using the years and durations given in Genesis.
40. Lamech
Genesis 4:23 And Lamech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah, Hear my voice; ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech: for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt. [kjv]
ειπεν δε λαμεχ ταις εαυτου γυναιξιν αδα και σελλα ακουσατε μου της φωνης γυναικες λαμεχ ενωτισασθε μου τους λογους οτι ανδρα απεκτεινα εις τραυμα εμοι και νεανισκον εις μωλωπα εμοι [lxx]
Lamech means lament, lamentation, despairing. The English word "
lamentation" comes from that Hebrew word.

42. Noah
Genesis 5:29 And he called his name Noah, saying, This same shall comfort us concerning our work and toil of our hands, because of the ground which the LORD hath cursed. [kjv]
και επωνομασεν το ονομα αυτου νωε λεγων ουτος διαναπαυσει ημας απο των εργων ημων και απο των λυπων των χειρων ημων και απο της γης ης κατηρασατο κυριος ο θεος [lxx]
The word "
Noah" means comfort or comforter.
43. Genesis 5:29
KJV: And he called his name Noah, saying, This same shall comfort us concerning our work and toil of our hands, because of the ground which the LORD hath cursed.

Greek: και επωνομασεν το ονομα αυτου νωε λεγων ουτος διαναπαυσει ημας απο των εργων ημων και απο των λυπων των χειρων ημων και απο της γης ης κατηρασατο κυριος ο θεος
Latin: vocavitque nomen eius Noe dicens iste consolabitur nos ab operibus et laboribus manuum nostrarum in terra cui maledixit Dominus
44. Generations from Adam to Noah
Adam = man
Seth = appointed (Gen 4:25)
Enos = mortal/frail/miserable/incurable
Kenan (not Cainan) = sorrow/dirge or acquisition (i.e., sin)
Mahalaleel = blessed/praised God
Jared = shall come down (verb form)
Enoch = teacher/teaching/commencement (Jude 1:14)
Methuselah = his death shall bring (the flood)
Lamech = lament/lamentation/despairing
Noah = comfort/comforter (Holy Spirit)
45. Composition
So, the first ten generations using their original meanings can be read as follows:
Man is appointed a mortal sorrow or acquisition (sin), but the blessed God shall come down teaching that his death shall bring the despaired for comforter
Is this not a short statement of the redemptive/salvation plan of the Creator?
How did this message get encoded in the Bible thousands of years before it actually happened?
Moses wrote down Genesis. Did Moses write of Jesus?
46. John 5:46
John 5:46 For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me. [kjv]
ει γαρ επιστευετε μωυσει επιστευετε αν εμοι περι γαρ εμου εκεινος εγραψεν [gnt]
Where did Moses write of Jesus? How about, for one, in the generations from Adam to Noah.
47. John 5:46
KJV: For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me.
Greek: ει γαρ επιστευετε μωση μωυσει επιστευετε αν εμοι περι γαρ εμου εκεινος εγραψεν
