God is full of hidden surprises and never boring. I was excited to read about the meanings of the names of Adam and his descendants. The meaning of their names reveal the Gospel message thousands of years before Jesus ever lived!
Hebrew--English
Adam--Man
Seth--Appointed
Enosh--Mortal
Kenan--Sorrow
Mahalalel--The Blessed God
Jared--Shall come down
Enoch--Teaching
Methuselah--His death shall bring
Lamech--The Despairing
Noah--Rest (or comfort)
Man (is) appointed mortal sorrow; (but) the Blessed God shall come down teaching (that) His death shall bring (the) despairing rest.
