2. From Adam to Noah

3.  This is the written account of Adam's line.
 When God created man, he made him in the
likeness of God. 2 He created them male and
female and blessed them. And when they
were created, he called them "man."

4.  OT:120 'adam (aw-dawm'); from OT:119; ruddy

11.  Gen 5:3 And Adam lived one hundred and thirty years,
and begot a son in his own likeness, after his image, and
named him Seth. NKJV
 Created in the image of God, but fallen into total
depravity. St. Paul says;
 Rom 7:21-25 So I find this law at work: When I want to do
good, evil is right there with me. 22 For in my inner being I
delight in God's law; 23 but I see another law at work in
the members of my body, waging war against the law of
my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at
work within my members. 24 What a wretched man I am!
Who will rescue me from this body of death? 25 Thanks be
to God — through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself
in my mind am a slave to God's law, but in the sinful
nature a slave to the law of sin.

12.  Gen 5:3 And Adam lived one hundred and
thirty years…NKJV
 How old was Adam when he was created?

13.  Gen 1:27-31 So God created man in his own
image, in the image of God he created him;
male and female he created them. 28 God
blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful
and increase in number; fill the.…the sixth
day.
 Old enough to marry and reproduce.
 16?, 18?, 25?, 35?, 61?

14.  This is pre-fall.
 Outside the boundaries of a cursed state.
 Is it possible that the first Adam, before the
curse might have resembled the Last Adam
after He conquered death?
 I think so.

15.  Mark 9:2-4 After six days Jesus took Peter,
James and John with him and led them up a
high mountain, where they were all alone.
There he was transfigured before them. 3 His
clothes became dazzling white, whiter than
anyone in the world could bleach them. 4 And
there appeared before them Elijah and Moses,
who were talking with Jesus.

16.  Jesus wasn’t recognized;
 Luke 24:40-41….he showed them his hands
and feet. 41 And while they still did not
believe it….
 John 20:15-16…Thinking he was the
gardener, she said, "Sir, if you have carried
him away, tell me where you have put him,
and I will get him." 16 Jesus said to her,
"Mary.“…

17.  How old was the Last Adam 40 days after He
resurrected and conquered death?
 How old is the Last Adam now?

18.  1 Cor 15:44-49…If there is a natural body, there
is also a spiritual body. 45 So it is written: "The
first man Adam became a living being"; the last
Adam, a life-giving spirit. 46 The spiritual did
not come first, but the natural, and after that the
spiritual. 47 The first man was of the dust of the
earth, the second man from heaven. 48 As was
the earthly man, so are those who are of the
earth; and as is the man from heaven, so also are
those who are of heaven. 49 And just as we have
borne the likeness of the earthly man, so shall we
bear the likeness of the man from heaven.

19.  Gen 2:17 but you must not eat from the tree
of the knowledge of good and evil, for when
you eat of it you will surely die.“
 Could it be that Adam’s 130 years started at
the fall?

20.  Eph 2:1-3 As for you, you were dead in your
transgressions and sins, 2 in which you used
to live when you followed the ways of this
world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the
air, the spirit who is now at work in those
who are disobedient.

21.  Gen 5:3-5 When Adam had lived 130 years,
he had a son in his own likeness, in his own
image; and he named him Seth. 4 After Seth
was born, Adam lived 800 years and had
other sons and daughters. 5 Altogether,
Adam lived 930 years, and then he died.
 Some teach that there are “gaps” in the
genealogy here, yet hold to inerrancy.
 How? Where?

22.  Adam had lived 130 years, … Seth.
 Seth had lived 105 years….Enosh.
 Enosh had lived 90 years….Kenan.
 Kenan had lived 70 years…Mahalalel.
 Mahalalel had lived 65 years….Jared.
 Jared had lived 162 years…Enoch.
 Enoch had lived 65 years…Methuselah.
 Methuselah had lived 187 years…Lamech
 Lamech had lived 182 years…Noah
 Noah was 500 years old…Shem, Ham and
Japheth. [Total = 1556 years]

23.  Gen 5:3-32, 1556 Years Adam to Shem
 Gen 7:11-12 In the six hundredth year of
Noah's life, on the seventeenth day of the
second month — on that day all the springs
of the great deep burst forth, and the
floodgates of the heavens were opened.
 1556 Years, plus 100 years=
 1656 Years Adam to Flood

24.  Gen 5:24 Enoch
walked with God;
then he was no
more, because God
took him away.
 Enoch walked with
God for 300 years.

25.  J. Vernon says that when the little girl learned
that Enoch walked with God, and God took
him to heaven, she explained to her mom
that they walked so far from Enoch’s home
that God said;
 “It’s so far back to your house why don’t you
just come home with me” and he did.

26.  Some of the commentators are not sure
where God took him.
 I think the little girl knows more than them,
based on Heb 11:5-6;

27.  Heb 11:5-6 By faith Enoch was taken from
this life, so that he did not experience death;
he could not be found, because God had
taken him away. For before he was taken, he
was commended as one who pleased God. 6
And without faith it is impossible to please
God, because anyone who comes to him must
believe that he exists and that he rewards
those who earnestly seek him.

28.  mete,qhken verb indicative aorist active 3rd
person singular
 [UBS] metati,qhmi (aor. mete,qhka ; aor.
pass. metete,qhn) remove, take back; take
up (of Enoch); change (of priesthood) ; distort
(Jd 4); midd. desert, turn away (Ga 1.6)

29.  Keil and Delitzsch Commentary says; “In Enoch, the
seventh from Adam through Seth, godliness
attained its highest point; whilst ungodliness
culminated in Lamech, the seventh from Adam
through Cain, who made his sword his god. Enoch,
therefore, like Elijah, was taken away by God, and
carried into the heavenly paradise, so that he did
not see (experience) death (Heb 11:5); i.e., he was
taken up from this temporal life and transfigured
into life eternal,

30.  being exempted by God from the law of death and
of return to the dust, as those of the faithful will
be, who shall be alive at the coming of Christ to
judgment, and who in like manner shall not taste
of death and corruption, but be changed in a
moment. There is no foundation for the opinion,
that Enoch did not participate at his translation in
the glorification which awaits the righteous at the
resurrection. For, according to 1 Cor 15:20,23, it is
not in glorification, but in the resurrection, that
Christ is the first-fruits.”

31.  Removed before the flood.
 Protected through the flood.
 Destroyed by the flood.
 For the faithful church (Philadelphia) Jesus
promised ek.
 Rev 3:10 Since you have kept my command
to endure patiently, I will also keep you from
[ek] the hour of trial that is going to come
upon the whole world to test those who live
on the earth.

32.  Yet he died before his father.
 How can that be?
 Genesis 5:24 Enoch walked with God; and he
was not, for God took him.

33.  When Methuselah had lived 187 years, he became
the father of Lamech. 26 And after he became
the father of Lamech, Methuselah lived 782 years
and had other sons and daughters. 27
Altogether, Methuselah lived 969 years, and then
he died. 28 When Lamech had lived 182 years,
he had a son. 29 He named him Noah….
 [Methuselah lived 782 years after the birth of
Lamech and Lamech lived 182 years to Noah, +
Noah’s 600 years to the flood. Means Methuselah
died the year of the flood.]

34.  Jewish tradition says the flood came within 7
days of his death.

35.  2 Peter 3:3-7 First of all, you must understand
that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing
and following their own evil desires. 4 They will
say, "Where is this 'coming' he promised? Ever
since our fathers died, everything goes on as it
has since the beginning of creation." 5 But they
deliberately forget that long ago by God's word
the heavens existed and the earth was formed
out of water and by water. 6 By these waters also
the world of that time was deluged and
destroyed. 7 By the same word the present
heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being
kept for the day of judgment and destruction of
ungodly men.

36.  All the descendants in the “Godly Line”
drowned except Noah and his family.

37.  Chuck Missler sees a hidden message buried
in this list of names, based on the Hebrew
roots of the names/words.

Notes”

39.  Who did
 Cain and Abel marry?
 Adam and Eve were created perfect and their off-spring would have had few, if any, genetic abnormalities. Problems with mutations in DNA or diseases would have been
virtually non-existant.
 We also know that people were multiplying like rabbits on the earth in the first generations:
"So the LORD said to him, "Therefore whoever kills
Cain, vengeance will be taken on him sevenfold."
And the LORD appointed a sign for Cain, lest anyone
finding him should slay him." Gen 4:15

"And Cain had relations with his wife and she conceived,
and gave birth to Enoch; and he built a city and called
the name of the city Enoch" Gen 4:17

 Therefore marriage between the children of Adam and Eve, Cain and Able's brothers and sisters, would be normal, common and without genetic defects.

 Then the days of Adam after he became the
 father of Seth were eight hundred years, and
 he had other sons and daughters. Gen 5:4

Marriage to a sister or brother in the first generations of the human race was not considered sinful. God's later instructions to Moses forbid marriage to close relatives as time
and sin marched onward.
"The nakedness of your sister, either your
father's daughter or your mother's daughter,
whether born at home or born outside, their
nakedness you shall not uncover." Lev 18:9

 "Cursed is he who lies with his sister, the
 daughter of his father or of his mother."
 Deut. 27:2
