Why had God given a new son to Adam and eve; Seth? how could God renew the humanity? who’s the first prophet in the history?
Seth Is Born
(And Adam knew his wife again, and she bore a son and named him Seth.) (Genesis4:25)
(Then men began to call on the name of the Lord.) (Genesis4:26)
Seth means human-being, so it might be that God made some sort of a Renewability For the mankind with a new good descendant.
(And as for Seth, to him a son was born, and he named him Enosh.) (Genesis4:26)
Hence, God created a new celestial descendant instead of the old terrestrial One.
(Seth lived one hundred and five years, and begot Enosh.) (Genesis 5:6)Â
(Enosh lived ninety years, and begot Cainan.) (Genesis5:9)
(Cainan lived seventy years, and begot Mahalalel.) (Genesis5:12)
(Mahalalel lived sixty-five years, and begot Jared.) (Genesis5:15)
(Jared lived one hundred and sixty-two years, and begot Enoch.) (Genesis5:18)
(Enoch lived sixty-five years, and begot Methuselah.)(Genesis5:21)
(And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him.) (Genesis5:24)
How Good are you our God! that you honor the human-being-the flesh and The Blood- to take him to your place over in the high heavens besides you.
(Methusaleh lived one hundred and eighty-seven years, and begot Lamech.) (Genesis5:25)
(Lamech lived one hundred and eighty-two years and had a son. And he called his name Noah, saying, “This one will comfort us concerning our work and the toil of our hands, because of the ground which the Lord has cursed.”) (genesis5:28-29)Â
Cain begot Enoch
(And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and bore Enoch. And he built a City, and called the name of the city after the name of his son-Enoch.)(Genesis 4:17)
So Cain begot a son and built a city of his name as a symbol for loving the Material world.
While, Abel died and the Holy Bible did not mention any sons of him, But he Was able to reach the city of God- the kingdom of God.
(To Enoch was born Irad; and Irad begot Mehujael, and Mehujael begot Methushael, and Methushael begot Lamech.)(Genesis4:18)
Irad means the city, Mehujael means the wrecked by God. And Methushael means Hero or man of God. And Lamech means the strong.
Lamech introduced for his two wives, the first poetry in the Hebrew literature, called, the song of the sword for Lamech.
(Adah and Zillah, Hear my voice; wives of Lamech listen to my speech: For I have killed a man For wounding me, even a young man for hunting me.)(Genesis4:23)
Many explanations, but mostly, some are saying that, Lamech became so old That he was led by his grandson in a hunt, behold, his grandson asked him To shoot a hunt, behold, that hunt is his grandfather Cain.Â
Behold, his grandson cried out he killed him too.
(If Cain shall be saved sevenfold, then Lamech seventy-sevenfold.)(Genesis4:24)
That’s because he as a killer knew that he is gonna be killed too.
Hence, God must revenge for the killed or oppressed, till the real savior Comes.
Please, dear reader observe that; there are two Enoch in the Holy Bible one from Cain while the other from Seth.Â
The first was a man of lusts while, the latter was a man of God; the first man Of God in the history of the world.
(So, all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred and sixty-nine years, and He died.)(Genesis5:27)
Dear reader Methuselah lived nine hundred and sixty-nine years but Eventually, He died.
